Example in C++:
Traversal techniques are fundamental because they define how information is
extracted from the tree. Each method serves a different purpose, and together they provide
a complete toolkit for working with binary trees.
7.3 Binary Search Trees (BST)
A Binary Search Tree (BST) is a specialized form of binary tree that maintains an
ordering property: for every node, the value stored in the left child is smaller than the parent,
and the value stored in the right child is greater. This property allows efficient searching,
insertion, and deletion operations, often in logarithmic time when the tree is balanced. BSTs
are widely used in applications where fast lookups and ordered data retrieval are required,
such as databases, symbol tables, and indexing systems.
