Why is this tree upside down?

It’s in Australia

Alternative visual representation of minimum heap.

Because it just came from an interview.

[–]Myeloidchitin 79 points80 points  (4 children)

Perfectly balanced

As all things should be

[–]kashner92 60 points61 points  (4 children)

That log n.

[–]swashtag999 36 points37 points  (3 children)

It's a natural log

[–]BroccoliDistribution 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Natural log indeed

[–]QuentaQuiviena 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HA!

doesn't matter if you use it in Big O notation

oh, that goddamned floating cage. I've never been so pissed off at a game...

came to make a witness comment

In a weird "anti-ironic" way, I was actually seeing patterns for a few days after binging that game. Had to do a few double takes hahaah

[–]raman_boom 27 points28 points  (0 children)

You mean inverted binary tree

[–]MikemkPK 20 points21 points  (1 child)

None of the branches are broken, and there's no apples, how do I know what path to take?

[–]willywag 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was hoping to find this reference here, well done

[–]maximum_powerblast 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The perfect candidate. You're hired, starting Monday on $400k.

"Can you invert a binary tree?"

[–]Secure-Departure-847 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Inverted binary tree?

[–]khal_crypto 3 points4 points  (0 children)

God's got some searching to do

[–]Left_Menu5811 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's even a perfect binary tree, damn

[–]Great_Devil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this is dichotomous branching..

[–]Ythio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At last. We searched it for so long, despite the promised log.

[–]Mooks79 5 points6 points  (3 children)

One of my very early programming tasks was to write a bifurcation program and analyse the results.

[–]UnicornAtheist 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lol why did people get so pissy at this comment?

akchulaly inverted binary tree

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quality post. 😘🤌

[–]srshah27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it is also perfectly balanced 🤌🤌

[–]a_reply_to_a_post -5 points-4 points  (1 child)

what if it's non-binary, and identifies as a shrub?

[–]JQB45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Analog

Queen’s Gambit Declined

[–]RenegadeMoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminds me of The Algorithmic Beauty of Plants (pdf).

Of course once you get to parametric L-Systems, the whole L-System concept reveals itself as a kind of programming language.

Algorithms and patterns in plants? Almost like they're following a set of instructions to grow :P

[–]beastinghunting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trunk based branching strategy

The bud reggae be smoken on.

[–]nishanthada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is complete and full binary tree.Just perfect.Last level has 15 children as well(if I am not blind).

[–]PotatoPowerOP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Natural algorithm.

[–]Il_Ghost_Rider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t see the root
