good work .its really helpful.

Why every function is defined twice. I didn't understand

@Nabeel-Malkani

Like this

void btree::postorder_print(){
postorder_print(root);
cout << "\n";
}

void btree::postorder_print(node *leaf){
if(leaf != NULL){
inorder_print(leaf->left);
inorder_print(leaf->right);
cout << leaf->value << ",";
}
}

every function is defined twicw. Any specific reason????????????

Like this

void btree::postorder_print(){
postorder_print(root);
cout << "\n";
}

void btree::postorder_print(node *leaf){
if(leaf != NULL){
inorder_print(leaf->left);
inorder_print(leaf->right);
cout << leaf->value << ",";
}
}

every function is defined twicw. Any specific reason????????????

As you can see the first one is a public function, the second one is a private function. Usually you let users call the public functions which in turn call private functions that have access to private members and data. You can think of the public functions as an interface. For 'private' use this isn't necessary.

why you didn't used search function??
Why did u even made them if u didn't wanted to use it??

@ravi8190

how to do this for while taking user inputs?

@mudasirhw

good work .its really helpful.

it is a binary search tree actually,, not binary tree. becoz in a binary tree there is n need to comapre a key while insertion.

you have mistakes in "print" functions, you use always inorder traversal, but you have to use recursion in that function.

In this function:
void btree::inorder_print(node leaf){
if(leaf != NULL){
inorder_print(leaf->left);
cout << leaf->value << ",";
inorder_print(leaf->right);
}
}
void btree::postorder_print(node leaf){
if(leaf != NULL){
inorder_print(leaf->left);
inorder_print(leaf->right);
cout << leaf->value << ",";
}
}
void btree::preorder_print(node leaf){
if(leaf != NULL){
cout << leaf->value << ",";
inorder_print(leaf->left);
inorder_print(leaf->right);
}
} You use always inorder_print, but you should use themselfs, like this :
void inorder_print(Node
leaf)
{
if (leaf != NULL)
{
inorder_print(leaf->left);
cout << leaf->data << ", ";
inorder_print(leaf->right);
}
}
void postorder_print(Node
leaf)
{
if (leaf != NULL)
{
postorder_print(leaf->left);
postorder_print(leaf->right);
cout << leaf->data << ", ";
}
}
void preorder_print(Node
leaf)
{
if (leaf != NULL)
{
cout << leaf->data << ", ";
preorder_print(leaf->left);
preorder_print(leaf->right);
}
}
This function will order rules of tree traversals. Am I right?

Man there is a big mistake in your code. Here:
void btree::preorder_print(node *leaf){
if(leaf != NULL){
cout << leaf->value << ",";
inorder_print(leaf->left);
inorder_print(leaf->right);
}
}

You use "inorder_print" inside "preorder_print". Rightly:
void btree::preorder_print(node *leaf){
if(leaf != NULL){
cout << leaf->value << ",";
preorder_print(leaf->left);
preorder_print(leaf->right);
}
}

The same within "postorder_print". Correct please.

Please use markdown, especially for code blocks. Makes it easier to read.
