24.Ft void
25.Fo avl_add
26.Fa "avl_tree_t *tree"
27.Fa "void *node"

34.Sh DESCRIPTION
35The
36.Fn avl_add
37and
38.Fn avl_remove
39functions add and remove objects from the AVL tree rooted at
40.Fa tree .
41.Pp
42The
43.Fn avl_add
44function inserts
45.Fa node
46into the tree.
47.Fa node
48must not already be in the tree, thus implying it must not compare equal
49to any other node in the tree.
50Adding
51.Fa node
52to
53.Fa tree
54will take
55.Sy O(log(n))
56time, as it implicitly determines where to place it in the tree.
57If
58.Fa node Ns 's
59location has already been determined by
60.Xr avl_find 3AVL ,
61then instead use
62.Xr avl_insert 3AVL .
63.Pp
64The
65.Fn avl_remove
66function removes
67.Fa node
68from the tree rooted at
69.Fa tree .
70.Fa node
71must be present in the tree, otherwise, the behavior is undefined.
72Deleting
73.Fa node
74from
75.Fa tree
76occurs in
77.Sy O(log(n))
78time.
