Recursion 4 Tree Traversals
Recursion: A definite of a function is recursive ifthe body contains an application
of itself .
Consider : Scn) = ?jior : Scn)={ 0 if n=o-
n+ Slm) if n> 0
These two descriptions of Scn) suggest two
implementations :
E⇒ SHE SHE5=0 if n=0for i=l . - A return 0St St i else
returns return ntsln- D7 3① ②

(Aside: fibC) is a terrible way to compute Fn :The running time is a double exponentialin the input site . )

Notice: The tree of recursive calls is the sameas the tree rooted at r .
TraversalsofR-otedbinargfrees.tttraversal of a graph is a processthat "visits" each
node in the graph once .
- We consider 4 standard tree traversals :1 level order2. pre - order
3. in - order
4. post - order .

- v is visited before anyof its descendants
-
every node inthe left subtree is visited
before anynode in the right subtree .
