Hello,

I'm having difficulties with a problem. I made a binary tree with 2 child coming from one parent but now they ask me to create another child meaning, the parent has 3 child. I can manage to create the third child only in the first parent, after that the tree grows from the left and right child. Here is part of the code, the function Insertar is the one in charge of inserting. Any ideas will be welcome, thank you.

public class NodoT
    {
        public NodoT NodoIzquierdo;
        public NodoT NodoMedio;
        public int Informacion;
        public NodoT NodoDerecho;
        //Constructor
        public NodoT()
        {
            this.NodoIzquierdo = null;
            this.NodoMedio = null;
            this.Informacion = 0;
            this.NodoDerecho = null;
        }
    }

Perhaps
this article is something for you.

Thank you for your reply ddanbe, i used that exact article to create my tree and the different functions. The binary tree that I have is working fine the problem is adding one more child to the parent. I created a node called NodoMedio which is the third node to be added to the parent. I tried adding it with the function above "Insertar" but the third node is added only once, then the tree grows from the side. I can't manage to make it recursively like the left and right node.

I have this binary tree http://skrud.net/files/binary_tree_boat_race.png Now imagine between node A and node B I need to add another node. Now Root will have 3 nodes instead of two. I can manage to put the third node only in the first node (root) but when I add more nodes, the tree grows only in node A and B, and wont add more nodes to the third node that is in between.

If you have three nodes in the root or in the leaves, it stops being a binary three.
Look on the net for ternary three, B-three, B+three etc.
