Linked representation of Binary tree | Data structures

For the linked representation of a binary tree, we use a node that has three parts. in the first part, we store the reference of the left child of the node and in the right part, we store the reference of the right child and in the middle part, we store the value of the node.

let's say we have a binary tree-like as you see in the image given below.

so the linked representation of a binary tree looks like this. if the node doesn't have any left child node then the left part of the node is None. and if the node doesn't have any right child then the right part of the node is None.

We also maintain the reference of the root node using a variable.
