OCR A Level CS - Add, Remove & Traverse Data Structures

Hey everyone!

Does anyone have any good sources for learning the Data Structures in Unit 1.4.2 for OCR A Level CS? Especially for Binary Search Trees... My class and my teacher had a debate today and I think we left more confused than we were at the start 💀, so if someone could explain how to remove a node from a binary search tree that would be wonderful.

Also do we need to be able to write/trace the code for implementing, tracing, adding and removing each data structure?

Thank you :smile:

Yes how could I forget Craig n Dave, but I was wondering whether there were any other reliable sources to fact check what they are saying?

They are ex-teachers and their videos are spot on. I met them this summer. Cracking people and their heart and motivation is in just the right place. Have you also found maths and physics tutor?

I would rely on them before say, an OCR textbook some of which I have found to be bit Meh. Also Zig zig resources seem to miss the point a bit.
