# Mathematical background
|
|
|
|
The main data structure is a full binary tree.
|
|
|
|
A binary tree is *full* if each of its node has either two or zero children.
|
|
|
|
If a node has two children it is an internal node, otherwise a leaf.
|
|
|
|
Fundamental theorem:
|
|
Let I be the number of internal nodes and L the number of leaves, then:
|
|
L = I + 1
|
|
|
|
(It can be proved by induction on the number of internal nodes.)
|
|
|
|
This means that when we add a leaf to the tree (when a window is created), we must also add one internal node.
