This C++ code implements a simple Binary Search Tree with functions for Insert, Remove, and Inorder Traversal. It also includes additional functions for finding the Minimum and Maximum values in the tree, as well as performing Pre-Order and Post-Order traversals. The code is properly commented to help newbies understand how Binary Trees work using simple recursive functions and pointers.

• Basic Knowledge of C/C++
• Understanding Of Class or struct
• Understanding of memory allocation for heap (Malloc, new, @)
• Understanding of pointers

TheBSTN class represents a Binary Search Tree Node (BSTN) and contains private data members for the key, left node (L), and right node (R). The public access contains the function declarations for all the functionalities. The code ensures that new values inserted into the tree are placed on the right if they are greater than the root and on the left if they are lesser.

Recursive functions are the functions where a singular continuously repeating operation is just recursively called within the function itself. For example, if you had a sum(int n) function which calculates the sum of 1 to n positive numbers, instead of traditional methods, you can have a while loop running until its control variable 'int n' becomes zero, return 'n + sum(n - 1)'. Similar concept is used in every function above.

To begin, you create a BSTN object 'b'. Then give some root value to begin with. Then continuously add leaf values in a for loop or something. Now we got our full tree. Find Maximum, Find Minimum, Remove Value, Search Value, Pre-Order, Post-Order, and In-Order Traversals.

• Constructor: Initializes theBSTN class with default values.
• Parameterized Constructor: Initializes theBSTN class with a given value.
• Insert: Inserts a new node into the Binary Search Tree recursively.
• Minimum of Tree: Returns the minimum value in the Binary Search Tree.
• Maximum of Tree: Returns the maximum value in the Binary Search Tree.
• Inorder Traversal: Performs an Inorder Traversal of the Binary Search Tree and prints the values in ascending order.
• Remove: Removes a node with a specific value from the Binary Search Tree.
• Search (Hunt): Searches for a specific value in the Binary Search Tree.
• Pre-Order Traversal: Performs a Pre-Order Traversal of the Binary Search Tree.
• Post-Order Traversal: Performs a Post-Order Traversal of the Binary Search Tree.

1. Create aBSTN object.
2. Use theInsert function to add nodes to the Binary Search Tree.
3. Use theInorder Traversal function to print the values in ascending order.
4. Use theMinimum of Tree andMaximum of Tree functions to find the minimum and maximum values, respectively.
5. Use theRemove function to remove a specific value from the tree.
6. Use theSearch (Hunt) function to search for a specific value in the tree.
7. Use thePre-Order Traversal andPost-Order Traversal functions to perform traversals.
