我必须实现以BFS顺序输出的堆遍历。它实际上不是BFS，但完成了相同的任务。

private void getNodeValue(Node node, int index, int[] array) {
    array[index] = node.value;
    index = (index*2)+1;

    Node left = node.leftNode;
    if (left!=null) getNodeValue(left,index,array);
    Node right = node.rightNode;
    if (right!=null) getNodeValue(right,index+1,array);
}

public int[] getHeap() {
    int[] nodes = new int[size];
    getNodeValue(root,0,nodes);
    return nodes;
}

我找不到一种完全递归的方法(没有任何辅助数据结构)。但是如果队列Q是通过引用传递的，那么你可以得到下面这个愚蠢的尾部递归函数:

BFS(Q)
{
  if (|Q| > 0)
     v <- Dequeue(Q)
     Traverse(v)
     foreach w in children(v)
        Enqueue(Q, w)    

     BFS(Q)
}

下面是简短的Scala解决方案:

  def bfs(nodes: List[Node]): List[Node] = {
    if (nodes.nonEmpty) {
      nodes ++ bfs(nodes.flatMap(_.children))
    } else {
      List.empty
    }
  }

使用返回值作为累加器的想法是很适合的。 可以在其他语言中以类似的方式实现，只需确保您的递归函数处理的节点列表。

测试代码清单(使用@marco测试树):

import org.scalatest.FlatSpec

import scala.collection.mutable

class Node(val value: Int) {

  private val _children: mutable.ArrayBuffer[Node] = mutable.ArrayBuffer.empty

  def add(child: Node): Unit = _children += child

  def children = _children.toList

  override def toString: String = s"$value"
}

class BfsTestScala extends FlatSpec {

  //            1
  //          / | \
  //        2   3   4
  //      / |       | \
  //    5   6       7  8
  //  / |           | \
  // 9  10         11  12
  def tree(): Node = {
    val root = new Node(1)
    root.add(new Node(2))
    root.add(new Node(3))
    root.add(new Node(4))
    root.children(0).add(new Node(5))
    root.children(0).add(new Node(6))
    root.children(2).add(new Node(7))
    root.children(2).add(new Node(8))
    root.children(0).children(0).add(new Node(9))
    root.children(0).children(0).add(new Node(10))
    root.children(2).children(0).add(new Node(11))
    root.children(2).children(0).add(new Node(12))
    root
  }

  def bfs(nodes: List[Node]): List[Node] = {
    if (nodes.nonEmpty) {
      nodes ++ bfs(nodes.flatMap(_.children))
    } else {
      List.empty
    }
  }

  "BFS" should "work" in {
    println(bfs(List(tree())))
  }
}

输出:

List(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

二进制(或n-ary)树的BFS可以在没有队列的情况下递归完成，如下所示(在Java中):

public class BreathFirst {

    static class Node {
        Node(int value) {
            this(value, 0);
        }
        Node(int value, int nChildren) {
            this.value = value;
            this.children = new Node[nChildren];
        }
        int value;
        Node[] children;
    }

    static void breathFirst(Node root, Consumer<? super Node> printer) {
        boolean keepGoing = true;
        for (int level = 0; keepGoing; level++) {
            keepGoing = breathFirst(root, printer, level);
        }
    }

    static boolean breathFirst(Node node, Consumer<? super Node> printer, int depth) {
        if (depth < 0 || node == null) return false;
        if (depth == 0) {
            printer.accept(node);
            return true;
        }
        boolean any = false;
        for (final Node child : node.children) {
            any |= breathFirst(child, printer, depth - 1);
        }
        return any;
    }
}

按升序遍历打印数字1-12的示例:

public static void main(String... args) {
    //            1
    //          / | \
    //        2   3   4
    //      / |       | \
    //    5   6       7  8
    //  / |           | \
    // 9  10         11  12

    Node root = new Node(1, 3);
    root.children[0] = new Node(2, 2);
    root.children[1] = new Node(3);
    root.children[2] = new Node(4, 2);
    root.children[0].children[0] = new Node(5, 2);
    root.children[0].children[1] = new Node(6);
    root.children[2].children[0] = new Node(7, 2);
    root.children[2].children[1] = new Node(8);
    root.children[0].children[0].children[0] = new Node(9);
    root.children[0].children[0].children[1] = new Node(10);
    root.children[2].children[0].children[0] = new Node(11);
    root.children[2].children[0].children[1] = new Node(12);

    breathFirst(root, n -> System.out.println(n.value));
}

设v为起始顶点

设G是问题中的图

下面是不使用队列的伪代码

Initially label v as visited as you start from v
BFS(G,v)
    for all adjacent vertices w of v in G:
        if vertex w is not visited:
            label w as visited
    for all adjacent vertices w of v in G:
        recursively call BFS(G,w)

我发现了一个非常漂亮的递归(甚至函数)宽度优先遍历相关算法。不是我的想法，但我认为在这个话题中应该提到它。

Chris Okasaki在http://okasaki.blogspot.de/2008/07/breadth-first-numbering-algorithm-in.html上用3张图片非常清楚地解释了他的ICFP 2000的宽度优先编号算法。

Debasish Ghosh的Scala实现，我在http://debasishg.blogspot.de/2008/09/breadth-first-numbering-okasakis.html找到的，是:

trait Tree[+T]
case class Node[+T](data: T, left: Tree[T], right: Tree[T]) extends Tree[T]
case object E extends Tree[Nothing]

def bfsNumForest[T](i: Int, trees: Queue[Tree[T]]): Queue[Tree[Int]] = {
  if (trees.isEmpty) Queue.Empty
  else {
    trees.dequeue match {
      case (E, ts) =>
        bfsNumForest(i, ts).enqueue[Tree[Int]](E)
      case (Node(d, l, r), ts) =>
        val q = ts.enqueue(l, r)
        val qq = bfsNumForest(i+1, q)
        val (bb, qqq) = qq.dequeue
        val (aa, tss) = qqq.dequeue
        tss.enqueue[org.dg.collection.BFSNumber.Tree[Int]](Node(i, aa, bb))
    }
  }
}

def bfsNumTree[T](t: Tree[T]): Tree[Int] = {
  val q = Queue.Empty.enqueue[Tree[T]](t)
  val qq = bfsNumForest(1, q)
  qq.dequeue._1
}
