Linked Lists for one thing can be easily implemented in a few lines of code in PHP itself. But the situation is different for tree, especially when you want to handle tree with an arbitrary number of children per node. Sure, even this can get done in PHP itself, too, butI doubt that it would be as efficient (and fast) as a implementation of that data structures in C. -- sebastian bergmann e-mail : sb@sebastian-bergmann.de homepage : http://www.sebastian-bergmann.de make a gift : http://wishlist.sebastian-bergmann.de measure the usability of your web application -> http://phpOpenTracker.de
