Find Height of a Binary Tree - Algorithm, Visualization, Examples

Topic Contents

AlgorithmCode

Algorithm Steps

  1. If the tree is empty, the height is 0.
  2. Recursively compute the height of the left subtree.
  3. Recursively compute the height of the right subtree.
  4. The height of the tree is 1 + max(height(left), height(right)).
