  • Overview AVL and Red-Black trees are Self-Balancing Binary Search Trees (BSTs). In a standard BST, if elements are inserted in sorted order, the tree becomes a linked list (degenerate), leading to $O(n)$ search time. Self-balancing trees ensure the height remains $O(\log n)$ by rotating nodes during insertion and deletion. Core Concepts AVL Trees: Strict Balancing:…
