Understanding the difference between a Binary Tree and a Binary Search Tree (BST) is essential for beginners in data structures. A Binary Tree is a hierarchical structure where each node has at most two children, with no specific order. It is mainly used for the representation and traversal of hierarchical data. In contrast, a Binary Search Tree is a special type of binary tree where the left child contains values less than the parent, and the right child contains values greater. This ordered structure enables efficient searching, insertion, and deletion operations. For beginners, knowing this distinction helps in choosing the right tree structure based on the problem at hand and improves problem-solving in coding interviews.
