Question
A tree is a nonlinear structure in which each node is capable of having at most two successor nodes, called children.
- Group of answer choices
- True
- False
Solution
The statement "A tree is a nonlinear structure in which each node is capable of having at most two successor nodes, called children" is False.
Explanation:
- A tree is indeed a nonlinear data structure.
- However, in a general tree, there is no restriction on the number of children a node can have—a node can have zero or more successor nodes.
- The description fits a binary tree, which is a specific type of tree where each node can have at most two children.
Thus, the statement is incorrect as it generalizes all trees as if they were binary trees.
