AVL tree is a self-balancing Binary Search Tree where the difference between heights of left and right subtrees cannot be more than one for all nodesTree rotation is an operation that changes the structure without interfering with the order of the elements on an AVL tree. It moves one node up in the tree and one node down. It is used to change the shape of the tree, and to decrease its height by moving smaller subtrees down and larger subtrees up, resulting in improved performance of many tree operations. The direction of a rotation depends on the side which ... Read More

The (int)x is C-style typecasting, where static_cast(x) is used in C++. This static_cast() gives a compile-time checking facility, but the C-style casting does not support that. This static_cast() can be spotted anywhere inside a C++ code. And using this C++ cast, the intentions are conveyed much better. In C like cast, sometimes we can cast some type pointer to a point some other type data. Like one integer pointer can also point character type data, as they are quite similar, the only difference is character has 1-byte, integer has 4-bytes. In C++, the static_cast() is more strict than C-like casting. ... Read More

In C/C++, omitting the curly braces assumes that only the first statement is the block and this leads to quite a few issues during debugging, as code is pretty tough to read and comprehend. Curly braces help us prevent errors and confusion, which also helps with the flow of the program. Proper Use of Curly Braces In C++, we can omit the curly braces after if-else statements, or after any loop. If we do not use curly braces, then only one statement after the if-else or loop will be considered under that block. Syntax The following is the syntax: − ... Read More

When we attempt to work with user input in C++, unwanted behavior may be caused by errors or leftover characters in the input buffer. So, in that case cin.clear() and cin.ignore() are functions that can help in dealing with this kind of problem. cin.clear() cin.ignore() cin.clear and cin.ignore() cin.clear() The cin.clear() resets the error flags on the cin stream and is used when an input operation fails (e.g., entering a non-numeric value for an integer variable). Without clearing the error flags, further input operations will not work. ... Read More

In C++, to print the odd-numbered levels of a binary tree, the levels are numbered from the root as Level 1. The odd-numbered levels are Level 1, Level 3, and so on. This program prints the nodes present at these odd levels. It uses level-order traversal to process the tree level by level and prints the nodes found at these levels. Algorithm to Print only Odd Numbered Levels of a Tree Following is the Algorithm to print odd numbered levels of a tree − Create a structure for tree nodes with data and pointers to left ...

In C++, there are two main ways to pass arguments to functions: pass by value and pass by reference. When you use pass by value, a copy of the variable is made, so the original variable doesn't change. With pass by reference, the function works with the original variable, so it can be changed directly. Each method is used based on what you want the function to do. We can pass arguments into a function in different ways. These different ways are − Call by Value Call by Reference ... Read More

Single quotes in C++ are used to denote characters, not strings. When you use single quotes around multiple characters or strings, C++ compiler will treat it as a multi-character literal, which will be stored as an integer value, representing the combined ASCII values of those characters. In this article, we will learn all about single quotes in C++ and how they behave when used with multiple characters. Single Quotes in C++ In C++, single quotes are used to represent a single character. For example, 'a' is a character literal representing the english alphabet 'a'. For each character, C++ assigns a ... Read More

When using std::getline after a formatted extraction (like std::cin >>), you might see an unexpected behavior, where std::getline is skipping the next input line. In this article, we will understand why this happens and how to handle it. Getline skipping input after formatted extraction The code below shows how getline() is skipping input after a formatted extraction: #include #include using namespace std; int main() { string name; string city; cin

Binary Search Tree (BST) is a special binary tree in which the left subtree of a node contains only nodes with values less than the node's value, and the right subtree contains only nodes with values greater than the node's value. In this article, we will learn how to perform a right rotation on a BST node using C++. What is Right Rotation in BST? Right rotation is a type of tree rotation technique that is used to balance a binary search tree. In the right rotation around a node, the node is moved to the right in such ... Read More

Binary Tree traversal is a process of visiting all the nodes in a certain order. In this article, we will learn how to perform postorder non-recursive traversal of a binary tree using two stacks in C++. What is Postorder Non-Recursive Traversal? Postorder traversal is a type of depth-first traversal where we first visit the left subtree, then the right subtree, and then the root node. In a non-recursive approach, we are not allowed to use recursive functions to track nodes for traversing the tree. Instead, we can use stack data structures to manually keep track of the nodes. This ... Read More
