To Be Turned In

StringHashSet implementation. You will be implementing a HashSet using separate chaining. It implements many of the methods from Java's Set interface.

Additionally:

When you finish, upload your .java file to this Moodle assignment.

Optional practice problem - not to be turned in.

This problem has been assigned in the past. Since you are actually implementing height-balanced trees, it seems redundant. But it could still be a very good practice problem for the next exam, so I did not remove it.

(0 points) Start with the following Binary Search Tree:

See the hint at the end!

  1. Is this an AVL tree? ____ If not, rearrange it so that it is height-balanced.
  2. Draw the tree after insertion of a node containing 11, using the usual BST insertion algorithm.
  3. Is the new tree AVL? ______ If not, name the node where the rotation should be done, according to the algorithm from class. ______ Single or double rotation? ____________ If you need to do a rotation, draw the resulting tree.
  4. Delete the element 5 from the original tree (not the one from part c), using the BST deletion algorithm described in class and in the textbook. Draw the new tree.
  5. Is the new tree AVL? ______ If not, name the node where the rotation should be done, according to the algorithm from class. ______ Single or double rotation? ____________ If you need to do a rotation, draw the resulting tree.
  6. Is your new tree (if any) AVL? ______ If not, name the node where the rotation should be done, according to the algorithm from class. ______ Single or double rotation? ____________ If you need to do a rotation, draw the resulting tree.
  7. Add the element 5 to the tree from part (f) using the BST algorithm. Draw the new tree.
  8. Is the new tree AVL? ______ If not, name the node where the rotation should be done, according to the algorithm from class. ______ Single or double rotation? ____________ If you need to do a rotation, draw the resulting tree.
  9. Add the element 12 to the tree from part (h). Draw the new tree.
  10. Is the new tree AVL? ______ If not, name the node where the rotation should be done, according to the algorithm from class. ______ Single or double rotation? ____________ If you need to do a rotation, draw the resulting tree.
  11. Add the element 7 to the tree from part (j). Draw the new tree.
  12. Is the new tree AVL? ______ If not, name the node where the rotation should be done, according to the algorithm from class. ______ Single or double rotation? ____________ If you need to do a rotation, draw the resulting tree.

Hint: In my solution, for all the sub-parts together, I did three single rotations and no double rotations. The first four leaf nodes in my final tree were 3, 5, 7, and 9. (In my first attempt, I misread part d) and deleted from the tree in part c) rather than the original tree. With that mistake, for all the sub-parts together, I did two single rotations and one double rotation and the first four leaf nodes in my final tree were also 3, 5, 7, and 9.)
