Prove that the height of a complete binary tree with n nodes is exactly ceil(lg(n+1))-1 using mathematical induction.
An in-order tree walk of an n-node binary search tree can be implemented by finding the minimum elementin the tree with TREE-MINIMUM and then making n-1 calls to TREE-SUCCESSOR. Prove that this algorithm runs inΘ(n) time.
(a) Show that a complete binary tree of height h has 2h+1 − 1 vertices. (b) Show that a nonempty binary tree with n vertices has height at least floor(log(n)).
