Data Structs - C language - Binary search tree

Need help with one function if you could explain with comments your steps how you made it I would appreciate it!

NOTE: Only need help making one function: (Assume other function calls work properly and feel free to make calls to them rather mallocing in this function.)

int insert(BinarySearchTree tree, Element value)

Included entire .h file for reference

/************************************************************************ BinarySearchTree.h

Purpose: Define constants used in the project. Struct definitions for a general Binary Search Tree. Define function prototypes used by general Binary Search Trees. ************************************************************************/ #include #include #include #include

//#define constant values #define MAX_URL_LENGTH 50

#define TRUE 1 #define FALSE 0

//typedef for the Element struct which constains a c string to store a URL in the BrowserList typedef struct { int key; } Element;

//Typedef for a node in the doubly linked list (has next and previous pointers). typedef struct NodeT { Element element; struct NodeT *pLeft; struct NodeT *pRight; } NodeT;

//Typedef for a binary search tree implementation. //Contains a pointer to the root node of the tree. typedef struct { NodeT *pRoot; } BinarySearchTreeImp;

typedef BinarySearchTreeImp *BinarySearchTree;

/*****Prototypes*******/

//Malloc a new BinarySearchTreeImp and return it's address. BinarySearchTree newBinarySearchTree();

//Free the BinarySearchTree and any nodes that still exist in the tree. void freeBinarySearchTree(BinarySearchTree tree);

//Allocate a new node and store "value" as the Element in the node. Return the address of the node. NodeT *allocateNode(Element value);

//Recursive algorithm for searching for a node with key value equal to searchValue. Return a pointer to the node if you find it or return NULL if it does not exist. NodeT *search(NodeT *p, int searchValue);

//Create a node to store the given Element and add it as a leaf in the BinarySearchTree. Do not worry about balancing the tree for this project. //Return true if the insert worked successfully, and return false if the node already existed in the tree. int insert(BinarySearchTree tree, Element value);

//Recursivly print the key values of all nodes in the subtree rooted at p in increasing order. void printInOrder(NodeT *p);

//Recursivly print the key values of all nodes in the subtree rooted at p according to a preorder traversal. void printInOrder(NodeT *p);
