Print path from root to all nodes in a Complete Binary Tree

Last Updated : 10 Jan, 2023

Given a number N which is the total number of nodes in a complete binary tree where nodes are number from 1 to N sequentially level-wise. The task is to write a program to print paths from root to all of the nodes in the Complete Binary Tree.
For N = 3, the tree will be:

     1
  /     \
2        3

For N = 7, the tree will be:

       1
    /     \
   2        3 
 /   \    /  \ 
4    5    6   7

Examples:

Input : 7  
Output : 
1 
1 2 
1 2 4 
1 2 5 
1 3 
1 3 6 
1 3 7 

Input : 4 
Output :
1 
1 2 
1 2 4 
1 3

Explanation:- Since, the given tree is a complete binary tree. For every node $i$ we can calculate its left child as 2*i and right child as 2*i + 1.
The idea is to use a backtracking approach to print all paths. Maintain a vector to store paths, initially push the root node 1 to it, and before pushing the left and right children print the current path stored in it and then call the function for the left and right children as well.
Below is the complete implementation of the above approach:

C++

// C++ program to print path from root to all
// nodes in a complete binary tree.
 
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to print path of all the nodes
// nth node represent as given node
// kth node represents as left and right node
void printPath(vector<int> res, int nThNode, int kThNode)
{
    // base condition
    // if kth node value is greater
    // then nth node then its means
    // kth node is not valid so
    // we not store it into the res
    // simply we just return
    if (kThNode > nThNode)
        return;
 
    // Storing node into res
    res.push_back(kThNode);
 
    // Print the path from root to node
    for (int i = 0; i < res.size(); i++)
        cout << res[i] << " ";
    cout << "\n";
 
    // store left path of a tree
    // So for left we will go node(kThNode*2)
    printPath(res, nThNode, kThNode * 2);
 
    // right path of a tree
    // and for right we will go node(kThNode*2+1)
    printPath(res, nThNode, kThNode * 2 + 1);
}
 
// Function to print path from root to all of the nodes
void printPathToCoverAllNodeUtil(int nThNode)
{
    // res is for store the path
    // from root to particulate node
    vector<int> res;
 
    // Print path from root to all node.
    // third argument 1 because of we have
    // to consider root node is 1
    printPath(res, nThNode, 1);
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
    // Given Node
    int nThNode = 7;
 
    // Print path from root to all node.
    printPathToCoverAllNodeUtil(nThNode);
 
    return 0;
}

                    int nThNode, int kThNode) 
{ 
    // base condition 
    // if kth node value is greater 
    // then nth node then its means 
    // kth node is not valid so 
    // we not store it into the res 
    // simply we just return 
    if (kThNode > nThNode) 
        return; 
 
    // Storing node into res 
    res.add(kThNode); 
 
    // Print the path from root to node 
    for (int i = 0; i < res.size(); i++) 
        System.out.print( res.get(i) + " "); 
    System.out.print( "\n"); 
 
    // store left path of a tree 
    // So for left we will go node(kThNode*2) 
    printPath(res, nThNode, kThNode * 2); 
 
    // right path of a tree 
    // and for right we will go node(kThNode*2+1) 
    printPath(res, nThNode, kThNode * 2 + 1); 
     
    res.remove(res.size()-1);
} 
 
// Function to print path from root to all of the nodes

Output:

Time Complexity: O(N*H) where N is the number of nodes and H is the height of binary tree.
Auxiliary Space: O(H) where H is the height of binary tree.
