Trees: AVL, B-trees and Red-black trees
Trees are hierarchical data structures that efficiently store data by organizing it in a structured manner.
AVL Trees:
AVL trees are a variant of binary search trees (BSTs) that maintain the property that the left and right subtrees of a node have the same size, on average. This means that the tree becomes more balanced as you go deeper into the structure.
B-trees:
B-trees are a self-balancing BST variant that maintains the property that the load factor (the ratio of the number of nodes in the left and right subtree) must be between 25% and 75%. This ensures that the tree remains balanced and efficient for various search, insertion, and deletion operations.
Red-black trees:
Red-black trees are a robust and efficient tree structure that satisfies the following properties:
The tree is binary.
The root node is black.
If a node is black, then its children must be red.
If a node is red, then its children can only be black.
These properties help to guarantee the structural integrity of the tree, resulting in improved performance for various operations.
These three tree structures are the most widely used and utilized tree data structures in computer science due to their ease of implementation and efficient operation
