MyTree Recursive III

Traversals

In this module we have talked about two traversals: preorder and postorder. Both of these are defined recursively and the prefix refers to the order of the root.

Preorder

In a preorder traversal, first we access the root and then run the preorder traversal on the children.

function PREORDER(RESULT)
    append ITEM to RESULT
    FOR CHILD in CHILDREN
           CHILD.PREORDER(RESULT)
end function

Postorder

In a postorder traversal, first we run the postorder traversal on the children then we access the root.

function POSTORDER(RESULT)
   FOR CHILD in CHILDREN
           CHILD.POSTORDER(RESULT)
   append ITEM to RESULT
end function
