Check if a given Binary Tree is a Heap

Last Updated : 02 Jun, 2023

Given a binary tree, check if it has heap property or not, Binary tree needs to fulfill the following two conditions for being a heap –

It should be a complete tree (i.e. all levels except the last should be full).
Every node’s value should be greater than or equal to its child node (considering max-heap).

Examples:

Input:

Output: Given binary tree is a heap

Input:

Output: Given binary tree is not a heap

Check if a given Binary Tree is Heap using Complete Binary Tree

Follow the given steps to solve the problem:

Check each of the above conditions separately, for checking completeness isComplete and for checking heap isHeapUtil functions are written.
First, check if the given binary tree is complete or not.
Then to check if the binary tree is a heap or not, check the following points:
- Every Node has 2 children, 0 children (last level nodes), or 1 child (there can be at most one such node).
- If Node has No children then it’s a leaf node and returns true (Base case)
- If Node has one child (it must be the left child because it is a complete tree) then compare this node with its single child only.
- If the Node has both children then check heap property at this Node and recur for both subtrees.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++

/* C++ program to checks if a
binary tree is max heap or not */
 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
/*  Tree node structure */
struct Node {
 
    int key;
    struct Node* left;
    struct Node* right;
};
 
/* Helper function that
allocates a new node */
struct Node* newNode(int k)
{
    struct Node* node = new Node;
    node->key = k;
    node->right = node->left = NULL;
    return node;
}
 
/* This function counts the
number of nodes in a binary tree */
unsigned int countNodes(struct Node* root)
{
    if (root == NULL)
        return (0);
    return (1 + countNodes(root->left)
            + countNodes(root->right));
}
 
/* This function checks if the
binary tree is complete or not */
bool isCompleteUtil(struct Node* root, unsigned int index,
                    unsigned int number_nodes)
{
    // An empty tree is complete
    if (root == NULL)
        return (true);
 
    // If index assigned to
    // current node is more than
    // number of nodes in tree,
    // then tree is not complete
    if (index >= number_nodes)
        return (false);
 
    // Recur for left and right subtrees
    return (isCompleteUtil(root->left, 2 * index + 1,
                           number_nodes)
            && isCompleteUtil(root->right, 2 * index + 2,
                              number_nodes));
}
 
// This Function checks the
// heap property in the tree.
bool isHeapUtil(struct Node* root)
{
    //  Base case : single
    // node satisfies property
    if (root->left == NULL && root->right == NULL)
        return (true);

    // second last level
    if (root->right == NULL) {
        //  check heap property at Node
        //  No recursive call ,
        // because no need to check last level
        return (root->key >= root->left->key);
    }
    else {
        //  Check heap property at Node and
        //  Recursive check heap
        // property at left and right subtree
        if (root->key >= root->left->key
            && root->key >= root->right->key)
            return ((isHeapUtil(root->left))
                    && (isHeapUtil(root->right)));
        else
            return (false);
    }
}
 
//  Function to check binary

{
    // These two are used
    // in isCompleteUtil()
    unsigned int node_count = countNodes(root);
    unsigned int index = 0;

        && isHeapUtil(root))
        return true;
    return false;
}

Output

Given binary tree is a Heap

Time Complexity: O(N), where N is the number of nodes
Auxiliary Space: O(logN), for recursive stack space.

Check if tree is MAX HEAP using complete Binary tree property with SPACE COMPLEXITY O(1)

Set the initial result to true as if it does not child than it is a heap
First check if the child is greater than parent, if so return false
Than check if the left child is null and right child has children or vice-versa, if so return false
Than check if the left child doesn’t have children but right child have children, if so return false
Than recursively call for left and right child and return AND of result of subtrees

Output

Given binary tree is a Heap

Time Complexity: O(N), where N is the total number of nodes.
Auxiliary Space: O(1)

Check if a given Binary Tree is Heap using Level Order Traversal:

Level order traversal can be used to check heap properties at each level of the binary tree. Check whether value of each node is greater than the value of its children and keep track of when the last node is encountered and whether it is following the heap properties using a boolean flag

Follow the given steps to solve the problem:

declare a queue for level order traversal and a flag variable nullish equal to false
Start level order traversal
- Check for the left child of the node and if either the nullish is true or root’s value is less than its left child node, then return false, else push this node into the queue
- If the node’s left child is null then set nullish equal to true, which means we have already encountered the last node, as the node with only zero or one children can occur only once in the complete tree
- Now check the right child of the node and if either the nullish is true or root’s value is less than its right child node, then return false, else push this node into the queue.
- If the node’s right child is null then set nullish equal to true, which means we have already encountered the last node, as the node with only zero or one children can occur only once in the complete tree
Return true after checking every node in the level order traversal
