difference between Full Binary Tree and Complete Binary Tree

topics
Full Binary Tree
Complete Binary Tree
1.node assemble
it's a regular binary tree with no odd number of leaves.
Every node or level of a tree is completely filled exception can happen only in the last level.

 2.last node
Last and each node must have either 0 (zero) or 2 (two) children.
Children on the last level node must start from the left most position with no spot left unoccupied in between any tow form the left counting.

3.application
 n/a
 Some specific data structure type (i.e. Heaps) need to be in Complete Binary Tree shape, when they need not to be a Full Binary Tree.

4.formula   
If one can find any of

  •  Number of Total Nodes or
  •  Number of Laves or
  •  Number of Internal Nodes
can find the other 2 at instant.

 In complete binary tree there is no relating connection among these 3 attributes.
5. leaf level
Not necessarily have to be in the same depth.
Tree must have the entire leaves node in the exact same depth.

  1. In the diagram of full binary there is an odd number of leaves.

  2. It's a mistake. A full binary tree is a tree with degree-2 nodes and leaves. There are no odd degree nodes i.e no nodes with only one child.
