Algorithm:
Recursively convert the tree to double tree in postorder fashion. For each node, first convert the left subtree of the node, then right subtree, finally create a duplicate node of the node and fix the left child of the node and left child of left child.
#include
#include
/* A binary tree node has data, pointer to left child
and a pointer to right child */
struct node
{
int data;
struct node* left;
struct node* right;
};
/* function to create a new node of tree and returns pointer */
struct node* newNode(int data);
/* Function to convert a tree to double tree */
void doubleTree(struct node* node)
{
struct node* oldLeft;
if (node==NULL) return;
/* do the subtrees */
doubleTree(node->left);
doubleTree(node->right);
/* duplicate this node to its left */
oldLeft = node->left;
node->left = newNode(node->data);
node->left->left = oldLeft;
}
/* UTILITY FUNCTIONS TO TEST doubleTree() FUNCTION */
/* Helper function that allocates a new node with the
given data and NULL left and right pointers. */
struct node* newNode(int data)
{
struct node* node = (struct node*)
malloc(sizeof(struct node));
node->data = data;
node->left = NULL;
node->right = NULL;
return(node);
}
/* Given a binary tree, print its nodes in inorder*/
void printInorder(struct node* node)
{
if (node == NULL)
return;
printInorder(node->left);
printf("%d ", node->data);
printInorder(node->right);
}
/* Driver program to test above functions*/
int main()
{
/* Constructed binary tree is
1
/ \
2 3
/ \
4 5
*/
struct node *root = newNode(1);
root->left = newNode(2);
root->right = newNode(3);
root->left->left = newNode(4);
root->left->right = newNode(5);
printf("Inorder traversal of the original tree is \n");
printInorder(root);
doubleTree(root);
printf("\n Inorder traversal of the double tree is \n");
printInorder(root);
getchar();
return 0;
}
Time Complexity: O(n) where n is the number of nodes in the tree.

Isn't there a contradiction in your tree diagram.
For the root of the tree(ie. '1')
its right child has remains the and the duplicate has the root's left child. But for the element '3',the duplicate contains the right child of the original(ie, '5' has become duplicate '3's right child).
Is it a mistake or have I misunderstood the question?
Sorry,there is mistake in my first sentence.
It should read
"the right child remains with the original root"
@karthik i am assuming thatv equal elemnts comes into left side of node hope it makes confusion clear:)
although i have tested as always ,let me know if still anything wrong with algo & code .
