depth first, pre-order traversal ?

843834Jul 26 2001 — edited Jul 27 2001
Im experiementing with various examples of parsing an XML document and adapting it to a TreeModel for use in a JTree component. Im looking at some of the newer JAXP API's like org.w3c.dom.traversal
Interface DocumentTraversal. Im wondering about depth first and pre-order traversal.
What do these terms mean ? Im guessing it has to do with the tree type data structure ? Like many programmers out there, I went to college for something other than comp sci so i never had the unfortunate pleasure of taking a data structures course.

Also it seems like the level 2 DOM spec is making things alot easier to work with, but even Sun doesnt have a good tutorial on using the newer API's.
