3. Binary Search Tree
Definition
• The Binary Tree is a Tree. In which every parent
node have maximum two child nodes.
• A Binary Search Tree is a variation of Binary
Search Tree. The values in the Binary Search tree
can be stored in the specific sequence.
• It is called a search tree because it can be used to
search for the presence of a number in O(Log(n)
times.
• A Binary Search Tree is an ordered tree.
• There is no permission for duplicate nodes.

4. Properties of Binary
Search Tree
The properties that separate a binary search tree
from a regular binary tree is:
• All nodes of left sub tree are less than the root
node.
• All nodes of right sub tree are more than the
root node.
• Both sub trees of each node are also BSTs
i.e. they have the above two properties.

The binary tree on the right side isn't a binary search tree
because the right subtree of the node "3" contains a value

Root
(1) Start at the root
(2) Compare the value of the item
you are searching for with the
value stored at the root
(3) If the values are equal, then item
found; otherwise, if it is a leaf
node, then not found.
(4) If it is less than the value stored
at the root, then search the left
sub tree.
(5) If it is greater than the value
stored at the root, then search
the right sub tree.
(6) Repeat steps 2-6 for the root of
the sub tree chosen in the
previous step 4 or 5.

Is this better than searching
a linked list? Yes !! ---> O(logN)

7. Time Complexities

Worst Case
Complexity
Search O(log n) O(log n) O(n)
Insertion O(log n) O(log n) O(n)
Deletion O(log n) O(log n) O(n)
Space Complexity
The space complexity for all the operations is O(n).
Note: Here, n is the number of nodes in the tree.

• In multilevel indexing in the database
• For dynamic sorting
• For managing virtual memory areas in Unix
