Tree::Binary::Visitor::PostOrderTraversal - Visitor object for Tree::Binary objects
For a complete example, see also "SYNOPSIS" in Tree::Binary.
use Tree::Binary; use Tree::Binary::Visitor::PostOrderTraversal; # create a visitor instance my $visitor = Tree::Binary::Visitor::PostOrderTraversal->new(); # create a tree to visit # this is an expression tree # representing ((2 + 2) * (4 + 5)) my $btree = Tree::Binary->new("*") ->setLeft(Tree::Binary->new("+") ->setLeft(Tree::Binary->new("2")) ->setRight(Tree::Binary->new("2"))) ->setRight(Tree::Binary->new("+") ->setLeft(Tree::Binary->new("4")) ->setRight(Tree::Binary->new("5"))); # by default this will collect all the # node values in depth-first order into # our results $tree->accept($visitor); # get our results and print them print join ", ", $visitor->getResults(); # prints "2, 2, +, 4, 5, +, *" # for more complex node objects, you can specify # a node filter which will be used to extract the # information desired from each node $visitor->setNodeFilter(sub { my ($t) = @_; return $t->getNodeValue()->description(); });
Post-order traversal is a variation of the depth-first traversal in which the sub-tree's are processed before the parent. It is another alternative to Tree::Binary's traverse method which implements a depth-first, pre-order traversal.
There are no arguments to the constructor the object will be in its default state. You can use the setNodeFilter method to customize its behavior.
setNodeFilter
This method returns the CODE reference set with setNodeFilter argument.
This method clears node filter field.
This method accepts a CODE reference as its $filter_function argument. This code reference is used to filter the tree nodes as they are collected. This can be used to customize output, or to gather specific information from a more complex tree node. The filter function should accept a single argument, which is the current Tree::Binary object.
$filter_function
This method returns the accumulated results of the application of the node filter to the tree.
This method should not really be used outside of this class, as it just would not make any sense to. It is included in this class and in this documenation to facilitate subclassing of this class for your own needs. If you desire to clear the results, then you can simply call setResults with no argument.
setResults
The visit method accepts a Tree::Binary and applies the function set in new or setNodeFilter appropriately. The results of this application can be retrieved with getResults
visit
new
getResults
None that I am aware of. Of course, if you find a bug, let me know, and I will be sure to fix it.
See the CODE COVERAGE section of Tree::Binary for details.
