Question

Write code for an efficient algorithm that will print out all the values less than a provided value in a binary min heap. The provided value may not be in the heap. Your solution should not, in general, examine every element in the heap. You should assume the array layout of the binary min heap as discussed in lecture. If needed, you may assume that the first element of the heap is stored in index 0 of the heap. You may assume direct access to the heap array. Make sure your algorithm does not change the heap. What is the asymptotic worst-case complexity of your algorithm? Explain your answer.

Explanation / Answer

void smaller_than(Node *node, int x)
{
if (node->value >= x)
{

return;
}

printf("%d ", node->value);

if (node->left != NULL)
smaller_than(node->left, x);
if (node->right != NULL)
smaller_than(node->right, x);
}
