This question is a programming question from the GATE-CS-2009 examination. The question focuses on the implementation of a program for processing a binary tree data structure.
The program is provided with a binary tree data structure where each node has a label and a list of children. The program must implement a function that selects all nodes in the tree which have at least one child with a label that matches a given input string.
The function should take two inputs:
The function should return a list of nodes that have at least one child with a matching label.
The solution to this problem involves traversing the entire binary tree structure starting from the root node. For each node, we check if any of its children contain a matching label. If a match is found, we add the current node to the list of selected nodes.
The following is the pseudocode for the required solution:
def select_nodes(root, label):
selected_nodes = []
# Recursive function to traverse the binary tree
def traverse(node):
# Check if any child node has matching label
for child in node.children:
if child.label == label:
selected_nodes.append(node)
break
# Recurse on all children
for child in node.children:
traverse(child)
# Call the recursive function on the root node
traverse(root)
return selected_nodes
This solution makes use of a recursive function traverse
which traverses all nodes in the binary tree. If any child node has a matching label, we add the parent node to the list of selected nodes. Finally, the function returns the list of selected nodes.
The solution to this problem involves traversing a binary tree and selecting nodes that have at least one matching child node. The provided pseudocode uses a recursive function to implement the traversal and maintains a list of selected nodes. This program can be easily implemented in any programming language that supports recursion and data structures.
