What is the time complexity of searching for an element in a balanced binary search tree like AVL or red-black tree?
- O(1)
- O(log n)
- O(n log n)
- O(n)
The time complexity of searching for an element in a balanced binary search tree, such as AVL or red-black tree, is O(log n), where 'n' is the number of elements in the tree. The balanced structure allows for efficient search operations, maintaining logarithmic time complexity.
