Useful links:
BST delete node: http://www.algolist.net/Data_structures/Binary_search_tree/Removal
Insertion and deletion (6 mins video): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcIRPqTR3Kc
Comment: deletion procedure here follows a different strategy: right subtree, leftmost element.

In-class work: see lecture slides
Suggested exercise (for practice, not for grade):

1) define the delete operation for BSTs in our C++ code (use Python's code)

2) define the reverse operation for BSTs (in C++ and in Python implementations) that will reverse the structure of the BST, i.e. for every node, all nodes in the left subtree have values greater than the value of the node; and all nodes in the right subtree have values less than the value of the node.
Week 14

From now on there will be no graded HW assignments, although I highly recomment to work on them.
We had 17 homework assignments is total. 5 lowest scores will be dropped, 12 homeworks with best scores will be averaged.

Instructions on how to work with Visual Studio:
1) Create a project:
    File -> New -> Project...
choose Visual C++ (on the left) Empty Project (on the right),
below: change the Name of the project and change the Location of the project.
it will take from few seconds to a couple of minutes to create a project ... wait
2) to add a file to you project:
find a panel on your right (called Solution Explorer) - you should see your project name there with a bunch of folders like Source Files, Resource Files, Header Files, ...
right click on the Source Files -> Add -> New Item
Choose Visual C++ (on the left) and C++ File (.cpp) (on the right),
don't foget to change the name of the file below (if you want it changed)
A window will open in the middle of the screen - you are ready to type the C++ code!
3) The following steps are to keep the console window open when you are running your program (otherwise it will be closed fast): In the Solution Explorer Panel (on your right): right click on your Project name (a menu will pop-up)
choose Properties (at the very bottom) -> then click on the triangle to the left of Linker -> then choose System -> then on the right, at the very top, click on the SubSystem and in the drop-down menu for this item choose Console (...). Click OK!

Congratulations! You are all set!

To compile and run your program / project hit Ctrl F5 or go to menu (on top) Debug -> Start Without Debugging.

HW6 (due date: Wednesday, 02/20)

Programming assignment: Let's think about doubly-linked lists. Define a class ListNode2, with three attributes: item, leftL, and rightL.
Left link points to the previous node in the list, right link points to the next node in the list.
You can also add the display method to this class (like we did it in class for the ListNode class).
Then test your class.
For example, create a linked list of 5 values: 34, 1, 23, 7, and 10. Display it. Then insert new value, say 8 between 34 and 1 (this time you will have to take care of links pointing to the previous and next node), display the resulting list. Then delete an element, say 7, update the links and display the new list.
Use this draft: ListNode2_forStudents.py

HW2 (due date: Wednesday, 02/06):

1) True/False questions: p. 33 / 4-6, 9, 10 - not for grade
2) Multiple Choice questions: pp.34-35 / 1-6, 10 - not for grade

Solutions: Chapter1solsTFMConly.pdf

3) Short-answer questions: p. 36 / 8 - not for grade
Solution: Chapter1ShortAnswerQuestions.pdf

4) Write a program that has both Linear Search and Binary Search algorithms implemented defined as two seprate functions.
Run each of the algorithms on the list of integers from 0 to 999999 and time them on three different numbers to search for: 10, 499999, and 999999. At the end your program should print the results.
Here is a draft/skeleton of the program: hwAssignment-twoSearches.py

5) Programming Exercises: p. 37-38 / 3, 9
Comments:
* Programming exercise 3 asks you to implement Selection Sort algorithm.
See my comments here: here and
video (about 10 mins) presenting visualization of Selection Sort: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8hXR_Hvybo

* In programming exercise 9 you are not to use the built-in set type.

Reminder: don't forget to put specification for each of the functions you are defining as well as to use internal comments (that start with #)
