Types of Binary Trees

Binary trees are tree data structures where each node has at most two children, which are referred to as the left child and the right child. The binary tree is a special case of the tree data structure where each node has at most two children. There are several types of binary trees, including...

Balanced Binary Tree

A binary tree is balanced if the height of the tree is O(log n) where n is the number of nodes. The height of the tree is the maximum distance from the root to a leaf. A balanced binary tree is important because it guarantees that the height of the tree is O(log n) and the time complexity of operations like search, insert, and delete is O(log n).1
