java.lang.Object
    |
    +----DataStructures.TreeIterator

public abstract class TreeIterator

extends Object

current

Current position.

t

The tree.

TreeIterator(BinarySearchTree)

Construct the iterator.

advance()

Advance the current position to the next node in the tree, according to the traversal scheme.

first()

Set the current position to the first item, according to the traversal scheme.

isValid()

Test if current position references a valid tree item.

main(String[])

retrieve()

Return the item stored in the current position.

testItr(String, TreeIterator)

protected BinarySearchTree t

The tree.

protected BinaryNode current

Current position.

public TreeIterator(BinarySearchTree theTree)

Construct the iterator. The current position is set to null.

Parameters:

theTree - the tree to which the iterator is permanently bound.

public abstract void first()

Set the current position to the first item, according to the traversal scheme.

public final boolean isValid()

Test if current position references a valid tree item.

Returns:

true if the current position is not null; false otherwise.

public final Object retrieve() throws ItemNotFound

Return the item stored in the current position.

Returns:

the stored item.

Throws: ItemNotFound

if the current position is invalid.

public abstract void advance() throws ItemNotFound

Advance the current position to the next node in the tree, according to the traversal scheme. If the current position is null, then throw an exception. This is the alternate strategy, that we did not use for lists.

Throws: ItemNotFound

if the current position is null.
