Binary Tree Level Order Traversal in C++

Suppose we have a binary tree. We have to traverse this tree using the level order traversal scheme. So if the tree is like
The traversal sequence will be like − [10, 5, 16, 8, 15, 20, 23]
To solve this, we will follow these steps −
define queue que to store nodes
insert root into the que.
while que is not empty, doitem := item present at front position of queueprint the value of itemif left of the item is not null, then insert left of item into queif right of the item is not null, then insert right of item into quedelete front element from que
item := item present at front position of queue
print the value of item
if left of the item is not null, then insert left of item into que
if right of the item is not null, then insert right of item into que
delete front element from que
Let us see the following implementation to get a better understanding −
