Instructions - Computer Science is both a theoretic and experimental science. Theoretic analysis tells us whether an algorithm is efficient or not in theory. Experiments can help us to identify whether an idea is useful or not in practice.
To conduct an experiment, we may learn from how a clinical trial is conducted. Basically, you need to use random examples, not to choose examples in your favour, and compare different ideas in the same environment.
In this project, we will study binary search trees. To help you get started, we provide the following java code bst.zip which contains the implementations of normal binary search tree (treeNode.java), AVL tree (avltree.java), red-black tree (redblacktree.java), and splay tree (splaytree.java). Study these codes and have them run on your computer is the first step of your project.
You are asked to complete the following tasks: The remove method is missing in redblacktree.java. Provide an implementation of remove in redblacktree.java and make sure it keeps the red-black tree properties (the parent point is not allowed in treeNode.java). Once this is complete, allow the remove operation to be performed on red-black tree in the method test in bst.java.
Compare the performances of AVL tree, red-black tree, and splay tree by running them on the same set of 100 examples with 5,000,000 mixed operations as given in the method question0 (and used by test) in bst.java.
Summerize the total running times for each tree. The code for collecting running times will be in the method question1 in bst.java. Suppose we want to sort the array keys[] in bst.java by using binary search trees. That is, we will insert each number in keys[] into a search tree and then vist the tree in in-order traversal, collecting the numbers along the way into another array, say res[] (you may reuse ops[] in bst.java for res[]).
To fulfil this goal, you are asked to provide the method inorder in treeNode.java, with the interface public int inorder(int i, int[] res) where i is the first position available in res[], and the method inorder returns the next available position in res[] after it adds all the numbers in the subtree rooted by the current (this) node into res[]. In a similar way as in the method test, create another method in bst.java with the following interface: public static void sort(int[] keys, int[] res, long[] times) which collects the running time of creating a binary search tree (i.e., avl, rbt, or spt), inserting all N keys in keys[] into the tree and collecting all numbers in the tree in the sorted order into res[].
Create 100 arrays of random numbers of size 500,000 to test the performance of each tree, summarize the total running time (the same set of arrays is used by each tree). The code for collecting running times will be in the method question2 in bst.java. For both tasks, please give a summary of your experiments and draw conclusions from the experimental data.
