This week we continued on with recursion by exploring self-defined abstract data types. This time with binary trees. Traversing them turns out to be a more complex example of recursion than we've previously used. The exercise for the week proved difficult at first. It left me with a dumb feeling to have worked for hours on what amounted to only a few lines of code, trying to understand how to properly implement traversals.

  1. But the recursive code is much more efficient, easier to read, and easier extend. Your effort pays off!
