They are naturally sustainable! Oh well, think about how trees
are conceptually related to pairs.
Define the terminologies around trees--tree, root, label, branch, leaf (the language we use may vary in different places).
Consider the following implementation:
def tree(label, branches=[]):
return [label] + branches
def label(tree):
return tree[0]
def branches(tree):
return tree[1:]
There are multiple ways to get started on playing with such tree structure! As a few examples:
Fill in the blanks of the implementation of sixty_ones
below, a function that takes a Link
instance representing a sequence of integers and returns the number of times that 6 and 1 appear consecutively.
def sixty_ones(s):
"""
Return the number of times that 1 directly follows 6 in linked list s.
>>> once = Link(4, Link(6, Link(1, Link(6, Link(0, Link(1))))))
>>> twice = Link(1, Link(6, Link(1, once)))
>>> thrice = Link(6, twice)
>>> apply_to_all(sixty_ones, [Link.empty, once, twice, thrice])
[0, 1, 2, 3]

Fill in the blanks of the implementation of no_eleven
below, a function that returns a list of all distinct length-n lists of ones and sixes in which 1 and 1 do not appear consecutively.

Define the function track_lineage
that takes in a tree of strings family_tree
and a string name
. Assume that there is a unique node with entry name
. track_lineage
returns a list with the entries of the parent and grandparent of that node. If the node with entry name does not have a parent or grandparent, return None
for that element in the list. See the doctests for details. Do not violate abstraction barriers. You may only use the lines provided. You may not need to fill all the lines.

A GrootTree
g
is a binary tree that has an attribute parent
. Its parent is the GrootTree
in which g
is a branch. If a GrootTree
instance is not a branch of any other GrootTree
instance, then its parent is BinaryTree.empty
.
BinaryTree.empty
should not have a parent
attribute. Assume that every GrootTree
instance is a branch of at most one other GrootTree
instance and not a branch of any other kind of tree.
Fill in the blanks below so that the parent
attribute is set correctly. You may not need to use all of the lines. Indentation is allowed. You should not include any assert
statements. Using your solution, the doctests for fib_groot
