4 5- inorder DFS: 4 2 5 1 3
- preorder DFS: 1 2 4 5 3
- postorder DFS: 4 5 2 3 1
- breadth-first search: 1 2 3 4 5
In principle one could talk about tree traversal of unordered trees as a number of possible traversals without a fixed order. But we won't consider that under this section, only deterministic ordered tree traversals.
