Message-ID: <43107@netnews.upenn.edu> Date: 15 May 91 05:01:05 GMT Sender: news@netnews.upenn.edu Reply-To: mjd@saul.cis.upenn.edu (Mark-Jason Dominus) Organization: University of Pennsylvania Lines: 11 Nntp-Posting-Host: saul.cis.upenn.edu The UNIX `tsearch' library includes a facility for performing a user-specified action on each node in a binary tree, in endorder. (That is, the action is performed on a certain node only after it has been performed for all the nodes in the subtrees of that node. Have you ever used this facility, or can you think of a use for it? Nihil tam absurde dici potest, quod non dicatur ab aliquo philosophorum. Mark-Jason Dominus mjd@central.cis.upenn.edu
