root = 1 stack = [(root, 0)] # (node, parent) internal = 0 horizontal = 0 ∎ An internal node requires a horizontal stroke

Proof. The drawing rules require a vertical line from the node down to the row of its children whenever it has at least one child. The line is mandatory and unique, hence exactly one vertical stroke. ∎ An internal node requires a horizontal stroke iff childCnt ≥ 2 .

Memory – The adjacency list stores 2·(N‑1) integers, plus a stack/queue of at most N entries and a few counters: O(N) .

Only‑if childCnt = 1 : the sole child is placed directly under the parent; the horizontal segment would have length zero and is omitted by the drawing convention. ∎ The number of strokes contributed by a node v is
