Print Binary Tree in 2-Dimensions

Print Binary Tree in 2-Dimensions is a DSA topic. In plain words you use it for folder on disk in a file explorer. Don’t start with a slogan — start with that picture.

Smallest example: left < root < right. Type it, run it, and say what you see. If you can do that from memory, you know Print Binary Tree in 2-Dimensions.

From the example next to this theory: Print Binary Tree in 2-Dimensions — inorder walks left → node → right (sorted order for a BST).

Trap — unbalanced BST becoming a list. Fix that before you talk about advanced DSA.

Viva — what is Print Binary Tree in 2-Dimensions? Then show left < root < right. Then name the trap.

Exam tip

What is Print Binary Tree in 2-Dimensions? Show this: left < root < right. Trap: unbalanced BST becoming a list.

Example

class Node:
    def __init__(self, val, left=None, right=None):
        self.val, self.left, self.right = val, left, right

def inorder(n):
    if not n:
        return []
    return inorder(n.left) + [n.val] + inorder(n.right)

root = Node(2, Node(1), Node(3))
print(inorder(root))

Print Binary Tree in 2-Dimensions — inorder walks left → node → right (sorted order for a BST).
