Shortest Path from root to a NULL child
Write a C Program to find Shortest Path from root to a NULL child in Binary Tree. Here’s simple Program to find Shortest Path from root to a NULL child in Binary Tree in C Programming Language.
What is Tree ?
In linear data structure, data is organized in sequential order and in non-linear data structure, data is organized in random order. Tree is a very popular data structure used in wide range of applications.
A tree data structure can be defined as follows…
- Tree is a non-linear data structure which organizes data in hierarchical structure and this is a recursive definition.
A tree data structure can also be defined as follows…
- Tree data structure is a collection of data (Node) which is organized in hierarchical structure and this is a recursive definition.
Every individual element is called as Node. Node in a tree data structure, stores the actual data of that particular element and link to next element in hierarchical structure.
Below is the source code for Program to find Shortest Paths from root to a NULL child in Binary Tree which is successfully compiled and run on Windows System to produce desired output as shown below :
