Why are Binary Search Trees an ideal data structure for insertion, finding a value and find the minimum element. Please explain in summary form.
Added by Melanie B.
Step 1
Insertion: Binary Search Trees have a property that each node has at most two children, and the left child is always smaller than the parent, while the right child is always greater than the parent. This property makes it easy to insert a new node in the correct Show more…

Why is binary search algorithm better than sequential search?

Suppose that we want to create a binary search tree where each node contains information of some data type called Item (which has a default constructor and a correct value semantics). a. What additional factor is required for the Item data type? b. Suppose that a binary search tree contains the number 42 at a node with two children. Write two or three clear sentences to describe the process required to delete the 42 from the tree.
