Hi i have weird doubt. My assingment is C++ program to insert and delete elements in Binary Search Tree.I am almost done wid the assingment. But the major part lies here. the strucure of the output is difficult to obtain.. i will explzin the question now.
Input:
F
D
R
P
M
N
V

Output:

F
     +-- D
     |       +-- NULL
     |       \-- NULL
     \-- R
            +-- P
            |      +-- M
            |      |    +-- NULL
            |      |    \-- N
            |      |         +-- NULL
            |      |         \-- NULL
            |      \-- NULL
            \-- V
                  +-- NULL
                  \-- NULL

I am done wid the ouput but iam not able to do the Vertical lines "|".. can anyone help me.. wid the logic. I am doing preorder...


CODE for PREORDER arrangement of ELEMENTS....

void BST::inorder(struct Node *p,int b)
{
if(p!=NULL)
{
printf("%s",p->element);
cout<<endl;


if(p->left == NULL)
{
for(int i=4;i<b;i++)
{
cout<<" ";
}
cout<<"+-- NULL"<<endl;
}
else if(p->left!= NULL)
{
for(int i=4;i<b;i++)
{
cout<<" ";
}
cout<<"+-- ";
inorder(p->left,b+5);
}
if(p->right==NULL)
{
for(int i=4;i<b;i++)
{
cout<<" ";
}
cout<<"\\-- NULL"<<endl;
}
else if(p->right!=NULL)
{
for(int i=4;i<b;i++)
{
cout<<" ";
}
cout<<"\\-- ";
inorder(p->right,b+5);
}
}
}

CODE FOR INSERT OPERATION

void BST::insert(char* data)
{

Node* n = new Node;
strcpy(n->element,data);
n->left = NULL;
n->right = NULL;

if(root == NULL)
{
root = n;
cout<<endl;
cout<<"INSERTED: "<<data<<" as ROOT Element"<<endl;
cout<<endl;
n->breadth=0;
inorder(root,n->breadth);
return;
}

Node* tmp = root;

while(tmp)
{

if(strcmp(data,tmp->element)<0)
{
if(tmp->left == NULL)
{
tmp->left = n;
n->breadth=n->breadth+5;
cout<<endl;
cout<<"INSERTED: "<<data<<endl;
cout<<endl;
inorder(root,n->breadth);
return;
}
else
{
tmp = tmp->left;
}
}
else
{
if(tmp->right == NULL)
{

tmp->right = n;
n->breadth=n->breadth+5;
cout<<endl;
cout<<"INSERTED: "<<data<<endl;
cout<<endl;
inorder(root,n->breadth);
return;
}
else
{
tmp = tmp->right;
}
}

}
}

CLASS DECLARATION

class BST
{
public:
struct Node
{
char element[10];
Node* left;
Node* right;
int breadth;
};
Node* root;

BST()
{
root = NULL;
}
~BST()
{
}
void insert(char*);
void remove(char*);
void inorder(struct Node*,int);
void delorder(struct Node*,int);
};

I am done wid the ouput but iam not able to do the Vertical lines "|".. can anyone help me.. wid the logic. I am doing preorder...

wid? Is this some kind of slang in India?

Since I can't follow your program even with CODE tags, and your explanation is vague at best, all I can say is keep track of your indenting and output 3-4 spaces followed by '|' for each indention level.

And if you want to get good help, format your code so we can read it.

Could anyone please help on how to print "|" here....

What does this question have to do with the problem posted?

The problem asked how to print vertical lines "|".I was also working on the same problem and was getting the same doubt and then I saw someone has already posted the doubt but no one has replied to it.

No, the problem is "My assingment is C++ program to insert and delete elements in Binary Search Tree.I am almost done wid the assingment. But the major part lies here. the strucure of the output is difficult to obtain.. i will explzin the question now."
