bst-nodejs v0.0.136

A Library for BST built with Javascript

Github: Github Project Link Feel free to modify the code and create pr if you find any bugs or want to implement new methods or add docs.

Installation

Using npm:

$ npm i --save bst-nodejs

In Node.js:

// Load the BST build.
var { BST, LinkedList, Node } = require("bst-nodejs");

// Load method categories.
To use this, first instantiate a binary search tree.
const tree = new BST();
let treeNodes = [10, 5, 13, 2, 6, 11, 16, 9, 32, 33, 31, 0];
for (const node of treeNodes) {
	tree.insert(node);
}
The following tree will be created.
/**

 *           5    13
 *          / \   / \
 *         2   6 11  16
 *        /     \      \
 *       0       9     32
 *                    /  \
 *                   31  33

Tree Structure: So, the BST consists of Tree Nodes called Node, they're structured like this:

class Node {
	constructor(value) {
		this.value = value;
		this.left = null;
		this.right = null;
	}
}

The object Structure is:

{
	"root": {
		"val": 10,
		"left": {
			"val": 5,
			"left": { "val": 2, "left": { "val": 0, "left": null, "right": null }, "right": null },
			"right": { "val": 6, "left": null, "right": { "val": 9, "left": null, "right": null } }
		},
		"right": {
			"val": 13,
			"left": { "val": 11, "left": null, "right": null },
			"right": { "val": 16, "left": null, "right": { "val": 32, "left": { "val": 31, "left": null, "right": null }, "right": { "val": 33, "left": null, "right": null } } }
		}
	}
}

Which means, a tree is an object with it's root being an object with value, left and right where left and right are of Node types, that consists of value, left and right.

A leaf node is when value exists but left and right is null for that node.

Note: If you want to use this BST as a regular Binary Tree, that is also possible. For that, you've to create the tree in this manner, instead of using the regular insert method.

const tree = new BST();
tree.root = new Node(1);
tree.root.left = new Node(2);
tree.root.left.left = new Node(3);
tree.root.right = new Node(4);
tree.root.right.left = new Node(5);
tree.root.right.right = new Node(6);
tree.root.right.right.left = new Node(7);
tree.root.right.right.left.left = new Node(8);
tree.root.right.right.left.left.left = new Node(9);

To know what all methods are supported, use tree.getAllMethods(). This gives a list of all the methods possible. All the BFS, DFS methods are accessible via Traversal method, by passing the available options, since this is a side project, while using traversal methods, make sure to chose correct combination, otherwise it breaks. Also, it's by no means a production grade system, using in production for large dataset is not recommended at all.

Some of the methods are already documented using jsdoc. It's a work in progress, consists of most important tree/bst questions. Will be updating this overtime, and testing is done by submitting code in leetcode and gfg practice, which helps determining code correctness.
