3. 20 points Suppose you have an AVL tree with tree nodes such that each tree node, u as the following pieces of data: .u leftChild .urightChild uparent .u- key ubalance Factor that you are given, as input, a tree node u. (a) Write pseudocode to determine what kind of rotation (if any) should be performed on u to rebalance it (b) Write pseudocode to perform a left-rotation about u (c) Write pseudocode to perform a right-rotation aboutu d) Write pseudocode to perform a left-right-rotation about u (e) Write pseudocode to perform a right-left-rotation about uExplanation / Answer
(Ans-) Following are the steps to perform insertion :-
Let the newly inserted node be w
1) Perform standard BST insert for w.
2) Starting from w, travel up and find the first unbalanced node. Let z be the first unbalanced node, y be the child of z that comes on the path from w to z and x be the grandchild of z that comes on the path from w to z.
3) Re-balance the tree by performing appropriate rotations on the subtree rooted with z. There can be 4 possible cases that needs to be handled as x, y and z can be arranged in 4 ways. Following are the possible 4 arrangements:
a) y is left child of z and x is left child of y (Left Left Case)
b) y is left child of z and x is right child of y (Left Right Case)
c) y is right child of z and x is right child of y (Right Right Case)
d) y is right child of z and x is left child of y (Right Left Case)
implementation:-
Following is the implementation for AVL Tree Insertion. The following implementation uses the recursive BST insert to insert a new node. In the recursive BST insert, after insertion, we get pointers to all ancestors one by one in a bottom-up manner. So we don’t need parent pointer to travel up. The recursive code itself travels up and visits all the ancestors of the newly inserted node.
1) Perform the normal BST insertion.
2) The current node must be one of the ancestors of the newly inserted node. Update the height of the current node.
3) Get the balance factor (left subtree height – right subtree height) of the current node.
4) If balance factor is greater than 1, then the current node is unbalanced and we are either in Left Left case or left Right case. To check whether it is left left case or not, compare the newly inserted key with the key in left subtree root.
5) If balance factor is less than -1, then the current node is unbalanced and we are either in Right Right case or Right-Left case. To check whether it is Right Right case or not, compare the newly inserted key with the key in right subtree root.

// A utility function to right rotate subtree rooted with y
// See the diagram given above.
struct Node *rightRotate(struct Node *y)
{
struct Node *x = y->left;
struct Node *T2 = x->right;
// Perform rotation
x->right = y;
y->left = T2;
// Update heights
y->height = max(height(y->left), height(y->right))+1;
x->height = max(height(x->left), height(x->right))+1;
// Return new root
return x;
}

// See the diagram given above.

struct Node *y = x->right;

// Update heights
