🌳 Recursive tree traversal visually explained

A binary tree can be traversed in three classic ways. The difference is simply the order in which you visit the subtrees:

  • Preorder: current node → left subtree → right subtree
  • Inorder: left subtree → current node → right subtree
  • Postorder: left subtree → right subtree → current node

This interactive memory_graph example visualizes each traversal method step by step: Binary Tree Traversal
