Solution: Scapegoat Trees
Review the solution of the modified add() method of the scapegoat tree.
We'll cover the following
Task
Modify the add(x)
method for ScapegoatTree
so that it does not waste any time recomputing the sizes of subtrees that have already been computed. This is possible because, by the time the method wants to compute size(w)
, it has already computed one of size(w.left)
or size(w.right)
.
Solution
We have implemented the code that modifies the add()
method forScapegoatTree
. The add()
method inserts a new element x
into the ScapegoatTree
and rebalances the tree if the depth exceeds a certain threshold.
