Real-world examples of the Data structure "Tree"👇

A thread🧵

🔸A tree
The nodes that give birth to other nodes under them is called a "parent node" and its children are simply called "daughter node" or "children nodes". The main stem of the tree is called the "root node".

🔸Family
The family of Mr. Alpha can be represented as a tree where Mr. Alpha has two children - Mr. Charlie and Mr. Romeo and similarly they both have two children.

🔸A hierarchical company structure

🔸An organism classification tree

🔸A Tree Corresponding to the Markup Elements of a Web Page

🔸Folder structure in an Operating system

🔸An XML Tree structure

🔸 Decision-based algorithm used in machine learning

🔸Database indexing
In database indexing, B trees are used to sort data for simplified searching, insertion, and deletion

🔸DNS Servers
Domain Name Servers (DNS) also use tree structures.

🔸Quora comments
Posting questions on quora, the comments are child of questions

🔸Comments on Twitter
The comment to a tweet on Twitter is a child of that tweet and similarly, a reply to your comment is your child of that comment

🔸Routing tables
A routing table is used to link routers in a network. It is usually implemented with a trie data structure.
The tree data structure will store the location of routers based on their IP addresses. Routers with similar addresses are grouped under a single subtree.

🔸Data compression using Huffman coding

This is the end of the thread.

Real-life examples for other data structures coming soon. Be sure to give a follow to @meetjain74
