How to display data in a tree format

[techie929]

Hi everyone,

I have to display a binary search tree in a tree format.

For BST insertion, if the input contains the following

F
D
R
P
V
M
N

The resulting BST should be displayed as:

F
     +-- D
     |    +-- NULL
     |    \-- NULL
     \-- R
          +-- P
          |    +-- M
          |    |    +-- NULL
          |    |    \-- N
          |    |         +-- NULL
          |    |         \-- NULL
          |    \-- NULL
          \-- V
               +-- NULL
               \-- NULL

Please help,how to display like this.

Completely depends on what you know. Since you gave us no hint (i.e. code) there's not much to explain.

I know how to print the data in preorder.....but i dont know how to display nodes in a tree format...

#include <iostream>

Try Breath First Search.
Google for the code, I think you should be able to find it online

Cant find it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[jonsca]

It's a typo, he meant breadth-first search.

[techie929]

hmmm...i knw ...i misd it...

but i still cant find....
plz guyz reply wid a code...i have a submission due tmrw...

[jonsca]

but i still cant find....

Results 1 - 10 of about 3,840,000 for breadth-first search

Google awaits. I don't really know much about them at all I was just clarifying his post.

I am able to insert and print the data like if the nodes are F,D,E...then the output is

F
D
 +--D
      +--NULL
E 
      \--E
           +--NULL
            \--NULL
                       \NULL

But it should be displayed as

F
 +--D
 |    +--NULL
 |     \--E
 |         +--NULL
 |          \--NULL
  \NULL
