Interview Question for Software Development Engineer In Test at Amazon.com:

Sadly I ran out of time for this question. But I e-mailed the response after my time was up. First create a small implementation of a binary tree, I did it in java with the standard implementation Nodes with left and right children as data points. Check whether the left child and right child have valid values, which is to say make sure all children on the right of a node have values greater than parents that they came from. The key thing that I missed during the interview was the fact that if you traverse once to the right, then once to the left, you have to make sure the value is between the max and min that you've encountered up to that point.
