There are ten labels. The successive deleted leaves of a graph are , paired with the respective entries . The final two labels are . Thus the tree has edge set
Here denotes the unordered edge ; the last edge is written with a separator to distinguish label ten. Equivalently its adjacency lists are , , , with all other vertices leaves of a graph. These lists make the constructed tree unambiguous.
