- Field Detail
  - probability
```
public double probability
```
    The probability of the node.
  - indexInArray
```
public int indexInArray
```
    The corresponding index in the pmf array of this node. If the value is -1, then this node is constructed by combining at least two probabilities.
  - leftChild
```
public HuffmanBasic.Node leftChild
```
    The left child of the node.
  - rightChild
```
public HuffmanBasic.Node rightChild
```
    The right child of the node.
  - huffmanCode
```
public java.lang.String huffmanCode
```
    The huffman code of this node.

```
public Node(double prob,
            int index)
```
    Construct the node with the given probability value and its index in the pmf array.
    
    Parameters:
    
    prob - The given probability value.
    
    index - The corresponding index in the pmf array.
  - Node
```
public Node(HuffmanBasic.Node left,
            HuffmanBasic.Node right)
```
    Construct the parent node given the left child and the right child.
    
    Parameters:
    
    left - The left child.
    
    right - The right child.
