Class: Tree::BinaryTreeNode

Inherits:
TreeNode show all
Defined in:
lib/tree/binarytree.rb

Overview

Provides a Binary tree implementation. This node allows only two child nodes (left and right child). It also provides direct access to the left or right child, including assignment to the same.

This inherits from the TreeNode class.

end

#left_child?Boolean Also known as: is_left_child?

true if the receiver node is the left child of its parent. Always returns false if it is a root node.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

    true if this is the left child of its parent.

end

#right_childTree::BinaryTreeNode

Right child of the receiver node. Note that right child == last child unless there is only one child.

Returns nil if the right child does not exist.

Returns:

#right_child?Boolean (readonly) Also known as: is_right_child?

true if the receiver node is the right child of its parent. Always returns false if it is a root node.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

    true if this is the right child of its parent.

Instance Method Details

#add(child) ⇒ Object

Adds the specified child node to the receiver node. The child node's parent is set to be the receiver.

The child nodes are added in the order of addition, i.e., the first child added becomes the left node, and the second child added will be the second node.

If only one child is present, then this will be the left child.

Parameters:

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)

    This exception is raised if two children are already present.

def add(child)
  raise ArgumentError, 'Already has two child nodes' if @children.size == 2

  super(child)
end

#add_from_hash(hashed_subtree) ⇒ Array

Instantiate and insert child nodes from data in a Ruby Hash

This method is used in conjunction with TreeNode.from_hash to provide a convenient way of building and inserting child nodes present in a Ruby hashes.

This method will instantiate a TreeNode instance for each top- level key of the input hash, to be inserted as children of the receiver instance.

Nested hashes are expected and further child nodes will be created and added accordingly. If a hash key is a single value that value will be used as the name for the node. If a hash key is an Array, both node name and content will be populated.

A leaf element of the tree should be represented as a hash key with corresponding value nil or {}.

>

Examples:

root = Tree::TreeNode.new(:A, "Root content!")
root.add_from_hash({:B => {:D => {}}, [:C, "C content!"] => {}})

Parameters:

  • hashed_subtree (Hash)

    The hash of child subtrees.

Returns:

  • (Array)

    Array of child nodes added

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)

    This exception is raised if hash contains too many children.

  • (ArgumentError)

    This exception is raised if a non-hash is passed.

  super(hashed_subtree)
end

#inordered_each {|node| ... } ⇒ Tree::BinaryTreeNode, Enumerator

Performs in-order traversal (including this node).

noinspection RubyUnusedLocalVariable

Yield Parameters:

Returns:

  • (Tree::BinaryTreeNode)

    This node, if a block is given

  • (Enumerator)

    An enumerator on this tree, if a block is not given
