Practice Questions

Test your understanding with targeted questions related to the topic.

Question 1

Easy

What is the minimum value in the tree that looks like this: 10 ↘ 5 ↘ 20?

💡 Hint: Look for the leftmost node.

Question 2

Easy

True or False: The maximum value of a BST can be found at a left child.

💡 Hint: Think about how the values are organized in the tree.

Question 1

What is the primary method for finding the minimum value in a BST?

  • Go right
  • Go left
  • Go up

💡 Hint: Think about which direction you travel for smaller values.

Question 2

True or False: In a BST, the predecessor of a node will always be its left child.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider how to find the predecessor in the absence of a left child.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a BST with the following structure, find the predecessor and successor of the node with value 7.

    5
   / \\
  3   8
 / \\   \\
1   4   9
     \\ 
      6

Show the path taken.

💡 Hint: Think about moving up the tree and checking right/left children.

Question 2

Write an algorithm to remove a node from a BST and then find the minimum and maximum values afterwards. Describe each step clearly.

💡 Hint: Consider if the node has children and how that impacts the structure.
