haarautumiskerroin
Haarautumiskerroin, also known as the branching factor, is a concept used in various fields, most notably in computer science and mathematics, to describe the number of sub-elements or branches that can emanate from a single element or node. In the context of algorithms and data structures, particularly trees, the branching factor quantifies how many children each node can have. For instance, a binary tree has a branching factor of two, as each node can have at most two child nodes. A general tree can have a variable branching factor, depending on its structure.
In artificial intelligence, specifically in search algorithms like game tree search, the branching factor is crucial
The concept also appears in combinatorics and graph theory, where it can refer to the number of
