Serialization is to store tree in a file so that it can be later restored. The structure of tree must be maintained. Deserialization is reading tree back from file.
Design an algorithm to serialize and deserialize a binary tree.
I have explained 3 methods to solve this.
Method 1: Using 2 tree traversals
Method 2: Using preorder traversal (DFS)
Method 3: Using Level order traversal (BFS)
