While walking home one winter night, he was intrigued by the brilliance of stars twinkling between the evergreen trees, according to History.com.

Donald Knuth's 2022 'Christmas Tree' Lecture Is about Trees (thenewstack.io)

Now approaching his 85th birthday, Knuth has become almost a legend in the world of computer programming — and he's still writing additional volumes for his ...

It’s not a Baxter permutation!” ) He’s even used Unix pipes to send the output of one program as the input for the next — and “I get back, of course, the one I started with.” “You give me a Baxter permutation, I can tell you what the floorplan is. If the numbers above any fixed numbers k and K + 1 are “bigs” and the numbers below them are “smalls,” then in Baxter permutations, “I can’t have a big followed by a small.” (And the converse is also true. (Or, this being a floorplan, into “rooms.”) As an aside, Knuth pointed out that this kind of modeling becomes important when creating silicon chips — where the “rooms” become modules or logic gates. (“I might as well write the whole thing down, because this is going on the internet,” Knuth joked at one point.) No matter which pair of numbers separated by one you choose for your test, “All the small guys are all going to come first, and the big guys later.” And going through that same sequence, first forwards and then backward, always gives you a pair of twin binary trees that — you guessed it — is again perfectly complementary. If in the sequence k is preceded by the larger k + 1, then “I can’t have a small followed by a big.”) “This tree insertion algorithm has been something that I’ve been playing with from the middle 1960s,” Knuth told the amazed audience “and I’ve used it in a zillion computer programs. binary tree insertion.” This is where data is inserted in the left fork if it’s lower than the key value, and in the right fork if it’s higher. Knuth began by introducing the audience to binary trees — a familiar branching data structure where, as you work your way down, each node can have up to two lower nodes (a left and a right “child” node). So this year’s triumphant “homecoming” lecture would indeed include trees — specifically a phenomenon Knuth describes as “twintrees,” along with Baxter permutations, and Floorplans.
