It's a bit hard to understand the question fully, but based on your attempt to use the statement
this = right;
I would guess that you are trying to make the current object be the right child. This is not usually possible in Java (or in most object-oriented languages), and is one reason why a recursive approach is often used. I will have office hours today at 3:30-4:30, if you'd like to talk about this on the whiteboard... |
