This project started with my (by the way pretty awesome) math teacher showing me his own program to draw binary trees (in VB). He challenged me to do it better! Of course, I took up the challenge and started coding right away.

While his program still draws the trees faster, my program has a lot more features and settings to play with. I did think about doing the drawing in DirectDraw, which would have been very quick, but it would take too much time to figure out how to do that. I just draw the tree on a regular tbitmap – with or without updating the screen.
