• Nodes are visited starting at the root going top to bottom and left to right (i.e., breadth-first). • A FIFO queue stores nodes that are yet to be visited. • When a node is visited, its children are placed at the end of the queue.

Traversals define the order of visiting nodes: • Preorder— • Inorder— • Postorder—

• Preorder—visit the node, then visit left child, then visit right child • Inorder—visit left child, then visit the node, then visit the right child • Postorder—visit left child, then visit right child, then visit the node
