You can always try representing a tree the same way a GUI does in help files or directory trees, using an outline format.
1. Root 1.1 level 1 item 1.1.1 level 2 item 1.1.2 level 2 item 1.2 level 1 item 1.2.1 level 2 item 1.2.1.1 level 3 item 1.3 level 1 item----- Original Message ----- From: "Alex Hall" <mehgcap@xxxxxxxxx>

In this case, I am talking about a tree os possibilities, where the root is where you start and each of the root's children can have 0 or more subtrees of their own... You see why this is so hard to represent in an accessible way. On 10/20/10, Phil Vlasak <pcsgames@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:Hi Alex, In an architecture plan, a tree is a circle with a dot at the center. The point represents the center of the trunk, and a circle represents the average distance the branches reach out. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alex Hall" <mehgcap@xxxxxxxxx> To: "programmingblind" <programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, October 20, 2010 10:32 AM Subject: trees?Hi all, We are doing trees in an algorithms class I am taking. The assignment coming up is the "n queens" problem, where you have an n by n board and must place n queens on the board such that no two queens share the same row, column, or diagonal line. To "help" explain this, the professor is using a tree on the board. I am completely confused! She says I do not need to think of it in terms of trees, yet the only way she explains it is in tree terms, so I am not sure what she is talking about. Of course I know about trees, but when she tries to explain how the code we are looking at relates to the tree in terms of what the code is supposed to do, I haven't a clue as to what she is trying to say. Does anyone have any thoughts on how to represent trees, whether in braille or speech, or a good notation/substitute for a tree?
