The following is a mathematical definition of a tree:

<BLOCKQUOTE> <b>Definition (Tree)</b><A NAME="defntree"> </A>
A <em>tree</em><A NAME=14845> </A> <I>T</I>
is a finite, non-empty set of <em>nodes</em><A NAME=14847> </A>,
<P> <IMG WIDTH=349 HEIGHT=16 ALIGN=BOTTOM ALT="displaymath63396" SRC="img1085.gif" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/html/img1085.gif" ><P>
with the following properties:
<OL><LI> A designated node of the set, <I>r</I>,
is called the <em>root</em><A NAME=14850> </A> of the tree; and<LI> The remaining nodes are partitioned into <IMG WIDTH=38 HEIGHT=25 ALIGN=MIDDLE ALT="tex2html_wrap_inline59063" SRC="img241.gif" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/html/img241.gif" > subsets,
<IMG WIDTH=15 HEIGHT=23 ALIGN=MIDDLE ALT="tex2html_wrap_inline63404" SRC="img1086.gif" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/html/img1086.gif" >, <IMG WIDTH=16 HEIGHT=23 ALIGN=MIDDLE ALT="tex2html_wrap_inline63406" SRC="img1087.gif" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/html/img1087.gif" >, ..., <IMG WIDTH=15 HEIGHT=23 ALIGN=MIDDLE ALT="tex2html_wrap_inline63408" SRC="img1088.gif" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/html/img1088.gif" >,
each of which is a tree.
</OL>
For convenience,
we shall use the notation <IMG WIDTH=157 HEIGHT=24 ALIGN=MIDDLE ALT="tex2html_wrap_inline63410" SRC="img1089.gif" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/html/img1089.gif" > to denote the tree <I>T</I>.
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<P>
Notice that Definition <A HREF="page251.html#defntree" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/html/page251.html#defntree"><IMG ALIGN=BOTTOM ALT="gif" SRC="cross_ref_motif.gif" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/icons/cross_ref_motif.gif"></A> is <em>recursive</em>--a tree is defined in terms of itself!
Fortunately, we do not have a problem with infinite recursion
because every tree has a <em>finite</em> number of of nodes
and because in the base case a tree has <I>n</I>=0 subtrees.
<P>
It follows from Definition <A HREF="page251.html#defntree" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/html/page251.html#defntree"><IMG ALIGN=BOTTOM ALT="gif" SRC="cross_ref_motif.gif" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/icons/cross_ref_motif.gif"></A>
that the minimal tree is a tree comprised of a single root node.
For example <IMG WIDTH=64 HEIGHT=24 ALIGN=MIDDLE ALT="tex2html_wrap_inline63416" SRC="img1090.gif" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/html/img1090.gif" > is such a tree.
When there is more than one node,
the remaining nodes are partitioned into subtrees.
E.g., the <IMG WIDTH=100 HEIGHT=24 ALIGN=MIDDLE ALT="tex2html_wrap_inline63418" SRC="img1091.gif" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/html/img1091.gif" > is a tree which is comprised of
the root node <I>B</I> and the subtree <IMG WIDTH=25 HEIGHT=24 ALIGN=MIDDLE ALT="tex2html_wrap_inline63422" SRC="img1092.gif" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/html/img1092.gif" >.
Finally, the following is also a tree
<P><A NAME="eqntreestc"> </A> <IMG WIDTH=500 HEIGHT=16 ALIGN=BOTTOM ALT="equation14857" SRC="img1093.gif" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/html/img1093.gif" ><P>
<P>
How do <IMG WIDTH=15 HEIGHT=23 ALIGN=MIDDLE ALT="tex2html_wrap_inline63424" SRC="img1094.gif" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/html/img1094.gif" >, <IMG WIDTH=15 HEIGHT=23 ALIGN=MIDDLE ALT="tex2html_wrap_inline63426" SRC="img1095.gif" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/html/img1095.gif" > and <IMG WIDTH=14 HEIGHT=23 ALIGN=MIDDLE ALT="tex2html_wrap_inline63428" SRC="img1096.gif" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/html/img1096.gif" > resemble their arboreal namesake?
The similarity becomes apparent when we consider the graphical
representation of these trees shown in Figure <A HREF="page251.html#figtree1" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/html/page251.html#figtree1"><IMG ALIGN=BOTTOM ALT="gif" SRC="cross_ref_motif.gif" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/icons/cross_ref_motif.gif"></A>.
To draw such a pictorial representation of a tree,
<IMG WIDTH=157 HEIGHT=24 ALIGN=MIDDLE ALT="tex2html_wrap_inline63410" SRC="img1089.gif" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/html/img1089.gif" >,
the following recursive procedure is used:
First, we first draw the root node <I>r</I>.
Then, we draw each of the subtrees, <IMG WIDTH=15 HEIGHT=23 ALIGN=MIDDLE ALT="tex2html_wrap_inline63404" SRC="img1086.gif" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/html/img1086.gif" >, <IMG WIDTH=16 HEIGHT=23 ALIGN=MIDDLE ALT="tex2html_wrap_inline63406" SRC="img1087.gif" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/html/img1087.gif" >, ..., <IMG WIDTH=15 HEIGHT=23 ALIGN=MIDDLE ALT="tex2html_wrap_inline63408" SRC="img1088.gif" tppabs="http://dictator.uwaterloo.ca/Bruno.Preiss/books/opus4/html/img1088.gif" >,
beside each other below the root.
Finally, lines are drawn from <I>r</I> to the roots of each of the subtrees.

Of course, trees drawn in this fashion are upside down.
Nevertheless, this is the conventional way
in which tree data structures are drawn.
In fact, it is understood that when we speak of ``up'' and ``down,''
we do so with respect to this pictorial representation.
E.g., when we move from a root to a subtree,
we will say that we are moving <em>down</em> the tree.
<P>
The inverted pictorial representation of trees is probably due to
the way that genealogical <em>lineal charts</em> are drawn.
A <em>lineal chart</em> is a family tree
that shows the descendants of some person.
And it is from genealogy that much of the terminology associated
with tree data structures is taken.
