This post will cover some learnings from the algorithms & data structures module (COM00141M) during my MSc studies with the University of York.
What is a binary search Tree?
A binary search tree (BST) is a rooted binary tree data structure. It consists of a root at the top of the tree with accompanying child nodes. The root and nodes have either zero, one or two child nodes that form left and right subtrees.
Binary search trees have to satisfy the binary search property, meaning values in the left subtree must always be less than the parent and values in the right subtree must always be greater than the parent.
