Nodes is a class protocol for tree data structures.
A class
which conforms the Node
-Protocol, will gain useful properties to easily navigate in the tree.
Create a new class
and conform it to the Node
-Protocol:
final class SimpleNode: Node {
typealias Value = String
var value: Value
weak var parent: SimpleNode?
var children: [SimpleNode]
init(value: Value) {
self.value = value
self.children = []
}
}
extension SimpleNode: Equatable, CustomStringConvertible {
static func == (lhs: SimpleNode, rhs: SimpleNode) -> Bool {
return lhs.value == rhs.value && lhs.parent == rhs.parent
}
public var description: String {
return "\(value)"
}
}
Create a root node:
let root = SimpleNode(value: "Hand")
Add children with addChild(node: Node)
:
root.addChild(node: SimpleNode(value: "Thumb"))
root.addChild(node: SimpleNode(value: "Index finger"))
root.addChild(node: SimpleNode(value: "Middle finger"))
root.addChild(node: SimpleNode(value: "Ring finger"))
root.addChild(node: SimpleNode(value: "Little finger"))
Print tree to console:
print(root.lineBasedDescription)
Result:
Hand
βββ Thumb
βββ Index finger
βββ Middle finger
βββ Ring finger
βββ Little finger
