Advent Stitch a Day (21st December)

"Stepping through the items of a tree, by means of the connections between parents and children, is called walking the tree, and the action is a walk of the tree.

A walk in which each parent node is traversed before its children is called a pre-order walk; a walk in which the children are traversed before their respective parents are traversed is called a post-order walk."
