Simple C Program to check whether the given Binary Tree is Binary Search Tree or not

This can be done in many ways . The simplest way is by using the Inorder Traversal . If we traverse a binary search tree using inorder traversal all the elements are in sorted order .

For the above binary search tree Inorder traversal is

 1  2  3  4  5  6  7

In the following code flag is used like a boolean varible . In the Inorder traversal if the elements are not in sorted order flag is set to 0 . The variable 'min' is used to store the previous value in inorder traversal . Initially it is assigned to the mininum integer value possible which is -32768.

Code :(in C)

Please let me know if you have any questions .
