Q:

C program for Depth First Binary Tree search using Recursion

belongs to collection: C programs - Trees

0

The following C program use Recursion to perform a Depth First Search traversal. Depth-first search (DFS) is an algorithm for traversing or searching a tree or graph. The concept of backtracking is used in DFS. In this program we are performing DFS on a binary tree. In DFS, the deepest and univisited node is visited and backtracks to it’s parent node if no siblings of that node exists.

The DFS works on acyclic graph. DFS may fail if it enters a cycle. Care must be taken by not extending a path to a node if it already has.
