Notes

• A binary tree is a generalization where every node has both a left and a right reference to other nodes, known as the left and right child nodes, respectively.
• Binary trees are drawn from top to bottom by convention. The top node where a binary tree starts is called the root node
• If a node c is the child of a node p, then p is referred to as c's parent.
• Binary trees are naturally recursive data structure, as an entire subtree can be spliced in by making the left child of a node be the root of that subtree.
