Lemma: A subtree rooted at node v has at least 2bh(v) − 1 internal nodes.
Proof of Lemma (by induction height):
Basis: h(v) = 0
If v has a height of zero then it must be null, therefore bh(v) = 0. So:
2bh(v) − 1 = 20 − 1 = 1 − 1 = 0
Inductive Step: v such that h(v) = k, has at least 2bh(v) − 1 internal nodes implies that v' such that h(v') = k+1 has at least 2bh(v') − 1 internal nodes.
Since v' has h(v') > 0 it is an internal node. As such it has two children each of which have a black-height of either bh(v') or bh(v')-1 (depending on whether the child is red or black, respectively). By the inductive hypothesis each child has at least 2bh(v') − 1 − 1 internal nodes, so v' has at least:
2bh(v') − 1 − 1 + 2bh(v') − 1 − 1 + 1 = 2bh(v') − 1
internal nodes.
Using this lemma we can now show that the height of the tree is logarithmic. Since at least half of the nodes on any path from the root to a leaf are black (property 4 of a red black tree), the black-height of the root is at least h(root)/2. By the lemma we get:

Therefore the height of the root is O(log(n)).

Question 1: Implement a base class Appointment and derived classes Onetime, Daily, Weekly, and Monthly. An appointment has a description (for example, “see the dentist”) and a date and time. Write a virtual function occurs_on(int year, int month, int day) that checks whether the appointment occurs on that date. For example, for a monthly appointment, you must check whether the day of the month matches. Then fill a vector of Appointment* with a mixture of appointments. Have the user enter a date and print out all appointments that happen on that date. *This Should Be Done IN C++

Implement a command console for changing settings on a particular object. The command console should allow you to enter a string and will return the response (very similar to a terminal session). The commands are as follows: SET propertyname=newvalue will change the target object’s member named “propertyname” to have a value equal to “newvalue”. If the input value is incompatible (i.e. an int being set to a string), print out an appropriate error message. GET propertyname will print out the current value of the target object’s member named “propertyname”. GET * will print out a list of all target object members and their current values. The system should be extensible for future commands and should accept an arbitrary object, such that another developer could insert another object into the system and rely on the command console to get and set the properties correctly.
