treelayout

Lay out tree or forest

Syntax

• [x,y] = treelayout(parent,post)
  [x,y,h,s] = treelayout(parent,post)
  

Description

[x,y] = treelayout(parent,post) lays out a tree or a forest. parent is the vector of parent pointers, with 0 for a root. post is an optional postorder permutation on the tree nodes. If you omit post, treelayout computes it. x and y are vectors of coordinates in the unit square at which to lay out the nodes of the tree to make a nice picture.

[x,y,h,s] = treelayout(parent,post) also returns the height of the tree h and the number of vertices s in the top-level separator.
