toString()

[Linksys]

Can anyone give me any hints as how to go through the whole tree?
I have tried many things like using multiple helper methods and such but I keep getting stack overflow errors when trying to get back to a previous vector or node. I am only able to go through one path and when I have to go back up is where im stuck on.

Thanks

Hmm I'm not sure what your project requires you to do.. but recursion seems to be a logical choice...

You may need to work on some kind of search pattern to regurgitate the information you want before the node you are in..

For toString(), we have to go through the entire tree. so if our tree is;
                                           ""
                            |                |               |
                            a               b                c
                         |    |              |            |    |     |     |
                      d       e           f             g    h     i         j
                                                                     |
                                                                    k
then our output is       a
                               a/d
                               a/e
                               b
                               b/f
                              c
                              c/g
                              c/h
                               c/i
                               c/i/k
                               c/i/j

it's preorder transversal....I'm going from left to right then checking downward...but....nothing works.......ahhhhhhhhhhhhh..... !!!!!!!!!!......sorry...

It's sorta like how size is organized.

alright now i have that part, but I have to add in the indentations, ... and I have space at the top....booooo!..
I have another method for indentation...and it looks good..
but I'm having problems adding it into my toString()...
I "should" be adding it after I say NEWLINE....but I can't add it there....I need it in my other method....ahhhhhhhh!!.

I've been playing around , and adding different combo.s but it doesn't work...

any suggestions??..

if u have a method that works except it just has space at the top, u can just trim() the String, which removes any whitespace in the beginning and at the end of the String.

thanks for the help!!

now i have my indentation to deal with:
I have a three helper methods, one goes down the tree, second goes to the side, and the third puts in the spaces(indentations):
I get the where I'm suppose to be indenting in the second method, but I need to use it in the first .

Any suggestions?

Does any1 know if this is ok?   ( I have /'s in front of the first urls)
/www.yahoo.ca
   /www.yahoo.ca/~blah
       /www.yahoo.ca/~blah/~haha
   /www.yahoo.ca/~nice
/www.zizzerman.com/

probably not ok since it is auto marked, you also should not have / at the end

try a conditional that only adds the / if it divides 2 parts

[barp]

Nope!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sorry man, i made an if to see if to put '/' there...  

but how did you do that "coo cool" indentation stuff...hehe.... I can't do it...

[Tony]

i put everthing into toString and no helper methods, probably a lot diff that urs

try passing a String parameter somewhere

[barp]

hmmm...yeah, I did like everywhere!. and it's not working for me...maybe a ta can help me out...
