Problem 3.1: Add trees (200pts)

Define the function add_trees, which takes in two trees and returns a new tree where each corresponding node from the first tree is added with the node from the second tree. If a node at any particular position is present in one tree but not the other, it should be present in the new tree as well.

Hint

  1. label(t) may not be a number.
  2. returns a new tree means that you should call the tree constructor for every nodes of the returned tree.
  3. Do not modify the given trees or reuse branches directly from the given trees, call tree constructors instead.
  4. Do not simply call list(branches(t)) to copy the branches of a tree t, as it creates a shallow-copy instead of a deep-copy of the list.
  5. You may want to use copy_tree defined in ADT.py to deep-copy a tree.
