What is a Red-Black Tree?
Explore the fundamentals of Red-Black Trees, a type of self-balancing binary search tree with colored nodes. Understand their color properties, how balancing is maintained during insertion and deletion, and differences from AVL trees. This lesson helps you grasp tree re-balancing mechanisms and implement efficient operations in C++.

Introduction #
Red-Black Trees are another type of self-balancing Binary Search Tree, but with some additions: the nodes in Red-Black Trees are colored either red or black. Colored nodes help with re-balancing the tree after insertions or deletions. We will go through the insertion and deletion functions of Red-Black trees just like we did with AVL Trees previously.
