Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which sorting algorithm uses a binary tree structure for sorting?
  • Step 1: Understand what a sorting algorithm is. A sorting algorithm is a method used to arrange elements in a specific order, like from smallest to largest.
  • Step 2: Learn about binary trees. A binary tree is a data structure where each node has at most two children, referred to as the left child and the right child.
  • Step 3: Know what a binary search tree (BST) is. A binary search tree is a special type of binary tree where the left child is less than the parent node, and the right child is greater than the parent node.
  • Step 4: Discover Tree Sort. Tree Sort is a sorting algorithm that uses a binary search tree to sort elements.
  • Step 5: Understand how Tree Sort works. First, it inserts all the elements into a binary search tree. Then, it retrieves the elements in sorted order by performing an in-order traversal of the tree.
