I am not getting your algorithm . Can you explain the term "forward-only iterator" and how this "forward only iteration " traverse the tree ?– Saurabh JainCommented Aug 14, 2014 at 16:50

@sdream I think his idea is basically the equivalence of: [1] Having a visitor that visits each node BFS style. [2] Keep a tmp value that holds the lowest value that has been seen [3] Find the min value in the tree that is greater than tmp [4] swap the min value with the value currently has in the visitor's node [5] move the visitor to next node [6] update the tmp value [7] repeat finding new min value that is greater than new tmp, don't forget to skip over nodes already visited by BFS visitor.– InformedACommented Aug 14, 2014 at 17:26

@randomA: Right idea, wrong algorithm. See edit. But yours might work too.– david.pfxCommented Aug 15, 2014 at 5:55

@randomA: What you described is a Selection sort. Simple and often good enough, but Insertion sort is usually faster.– david.pfxCommented Aug 16, 2014 at 7:34

How to Edit
- Correct minor typos or mistakes
- Clarify meaning without changing it

- Always respect the author’s intent
- Don’t use edits to reply to the author
How to Format
-
create code fences with backticks ` or tildes ~
```
like so
``` -
add language identifier to highlight code
```python
def function(foo):
print(foo)
``` - put returns between paragraphs
- for linebreak add 2 spaces at end
- _italic_ or **bold**
- indent code by 4 spaces
- backtick escapes
`like _so_` - quote by placing > at start of line
- to make links (use https whenever possible)
<https://example.com>[example](https://example.com)<a href="https://example.com">example</a>
How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. design-patterns), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
