Consider a binary tree T in which every node has either zero or two children. Let n>0 be the number of nodes in T.
Which ONE of the following is the number of nodes in T that have exactly two children?
Which ONE of the following is the number of nodes in T that have exactly two children?
Correct : b
We can find an element that is not the largest with just one comparison: take any two elements from the list, compare them, and the smaller one is guaranteed not to be the largest since the other element is larger. Because the integers are distinct, no ties occur. This method works regardless of where the largest element is in the list.
✅ Final Answer: Option (a) — 1.
Reason: The smaller of two compared elements is definitely not the largest, so only one element comparison is needed in the worst case.
