26. (10 pts) Show the result of inserting 3, 1, 4, 6, 9, 2, 5, and 7 in an initially empty binary search tree. Then show the result of deleting the root. You should draw 2 separate trees to answer this question.

First tree Inorder listing: 12345679 Preorder listing: 31246597 Postorder lising: 21579643 Second tree Inorder listing: 1245679 Preorder listing: 4126597 Postorder lising: 2157964

27. (20 pts) Show the result of inserting 10, 12, 1, 14, 6, 5, 8, 15, 3, 9, 7, 4, 11, 13, and 2, one at a time, into an initially empty binary min heap Either draw each intermediate heap or give a level order listing of the nodes in each intermediate heap for full credit (15 trees or 15 listings total). 2 points extra credit for both trees and level order listings!!

The following are level-order listings of the trees:

28. (20 pts) Write methods that take a reference to a binary tree root T, compute, and return the quantities specified in parts (a) and (b) below. Assume T is a reference to a BinaryNode object and that each node in the linked tree contains a key and pointers to left and right BinaryNode children. Include the code for any helper methods you use.

a) The number of leaves in T.

Method in BinaryTree class:

public int countLeaves(BinaryNode T) {

if (T == null) return 0;

if (T.getLeft() == null && T.getRight() == null) return 1;

return countLeaves(T.getLeft())+countLeaves(T.getRight());

}

b) The number of nodes in T that have one non-null child.

Method in BinaryTree class:

public int countSolos(BinaryNode T) {

if (T == null)

return 0;

if (T.getLeft()==null && T.getRight()==null) return 0;

else {

if (T.getLeft()==null && T.getRight()!=null) return 1 + countSolos(getRight());

if (T.getLeft()!=null && T.getRight()==null) return 1 + countSolos(getLeft())

return countSolos(getLeft())+countSolos(getRight());

}
