Longest word in ternary search tree

Given a set of words represented in a ternary search tree, find the length of largest word among them.

Examples: 

Input : {"Prakriti", "Raghav", 
           "Rashi", "Sunidhi"}
Output : Length of largest word in 
         ternary search tree is: 8

Input : {"Boats", "Boat", "But", "Best"}
Output : Length of largest word in 
         ternary search tree is: 5

Prerequisite : Ternary Search Tree
The idea is to recursively search the max of left subtree, right subtree and equal tree. 
If the current character is same as the root’s character increment with 1. 

Implementation:




// C++ program to find the length of largest word
// in ternary search tree
#include <iostream>
#include <cstring>
#define MAX 50
 
using namespace std;
 
// A node of ternary search tree
struct Node
{
    char data;
 
    // True if this character is last
    // character of one of the words
    unsigned isEndOfString : 1;
 
    Node *left, *eq, *right;
 
    // A utility function to create a new
    // ternary search tree node
    Node(char data)
    {
        this->data = data;
        this->isEndOfString = 0;
        this->left = this->eq = this->right = nullptr;
    }
};
 
// Function to insert a new word in a Ternary
// Search Tree
void insert(Node** root, const char* word)
{
    // Base Case: Tree is empty
    if (!(*root))
        *root = new Node(*word);
 
    // If current character of word is smaller
    // than root's character, then insert this
    // word in left subtree of root
    if (*word < (*root)->data)
        insert(&((*root)->left), word);
 
    // If current character of word is greater
    // than root's character, then insert this
    // word in right subtree of root
    else if (*word > (*root)->data)
        insert(&((*root)->right), word);
 
    // If current character of word is same as
    // root's character,
    else
    {
        if (*(word + 1))
            insert(&((*root)->eq), word + 1);
 
        // the last character of the word
        else
            (*root)->isEndOfString = 1;
    }
}
 
// Function to find max of three numbers
int max(int a, int b, int c)
{
    int max;
    if (a >= b && a >= c)
        max = a;
    else if (b >= a && b >= c)
        max = b;
    else
        max = c;
     
    return max;
}
 
// Function to find length of largest word in TST
int maxLengthTST(Node* root)
{
    if (root == nullptr)
        return 0;
    return max(maxLengthTST(root->left),
        maxLengthTST(root->eq) + 1,
        maxLengthTST(root->right));
}
 
// Driver program to test above functions
int main()
{
    Node* root = nullptr;
    insert(&root, "Prakriti");
    insert(&root, "Raghav");
    insert(&root, "Rashi");
    insert(&root, "Sunidhi");
    int value = maxLengthTST(root);
    cout << "Length of largest word in ternary search tree is: " << value << endl;
