For now, one straightforward way to determine this would be: enumerate the fringe of the first tree. That gives you a list. Enumerate the fringe of the second tree. That also gives you a list. Then compare the two -lists to see if they're equal. +lists to see if they're equal. Write the fringe-enumeration function. It should work on the -implementation of trees you designed in the previous step, and it -should make use of the list comparison function you wrote for question -2.
