AVL Tree Rotation Types Explained for Self-Balancing Binary Search Trees

Hey everyone, in this video we break down the four types of rotations you need to know for AVL trees - self-balancing binary search trees.

We cover single right rotations, single left rotations, double right rotations, and double left rotations with clear diagrams and explanations of the input patterns and how they become the balanced output pattern.

If you've been learning about binary search trees and want to understand how AVL trees maintain their balance through rotations, this is the perfect next step. We look at the trinode subtrees, balance factors, and exactly how to rearrange the pointers for each case.

Great for computer science students, coding interviews, or anyone building their data structures knowledge.
