A \key{tree} is a connected, acyclic graph

Removing any edge from a tree divides it
into two components,

\section{Tree search}
\section{Tree traversal}
Depth-first search and breadth-first search
can be used for going through the nodes in a tree.
However, the search is easier to implement than
for a general graph, because
can be used for traversing the nodes in a tree.
However, the traversal is easier to implement than
in a general graph because
there are no cycles in the tree, and it is not
possible that the search would visit a node several times.

Often, we start a depth-first search from a chosen
root node.
The following recursive function implements it:

\subsubsection{Dynamic programming}
We can also use dynamic programming to calculate
some information from the tree during the search.
Dynamic programming can be used to calculate
some information during a tree traversal.
Using dynamic programming, we can, for example,
calculate in $O(n)$ time for each node the
number of nodes in its subtree,
or the length of the longest path downwards
that begins at the node.

The algorithm first calculates using dynamic programming
for each node the length of the longest path
that goes downwards from the node.
The algorithm first calculates for each node $x$
the length of the longest path from $x$ to a leaf.
For example, in the above tree,
the longest path from node 1 downwards has length 2
the longest path from node 1 to a leaf has length 2
(the path can be $1 \rightarrow 4 \rightarrow 3$,
$1 \rightarrow 4 \rightarrow 7$ or $1 \rightarrow 2 \rightarrow 6$).
After this, the algorithm calculates for each node
the length of the longest path where the node

is the turning point of the path.
The longest such path can be found by selecting
two children with longest paths downwards.
The longest such path can be found by choosing
two children with longest paths two leaves.
For example, in the above graph,
nodes 2 and 4 are chosen for node 1.
nodes 2 and 4 yield the longest path for node 1.
\subsubsection{Algorithm 2}
Another efficient way to calculate the diameter
of a tree is based on two depth-first searches.
First, we choose an arbitrary node $a$ in the tree
and find a node $b$ with maximum distance to $a$.
Then, we find a node $c$ with maximum distance to $b$.
The diameter is the distance between nodes $b$ and $c$.
and find the farthest node $b$ from $a$.
Then, we find the farthest node $c$ from $b$.
The diameter of the tree is the distance between $b$ and $c$.
