    public class SimpleTree

extends Tree

A `SimpleTree` is a minimal concrete implementation of an unlabeled, unscored `Tree`. It has a tree structure, but no annotation at nodes.

Constructor Detail

### SimpleTree

    public SimpleTree()

  Create an empty parse tree.

### SimpleTree

    public SimpleTree(Label label)

  Create parse tree with given root and null daughters.

  Parameters:
    `label` - root label of new tree to construct. For a SimpleTree this parameter is ignored.

### SimpleTree

    public SimpleTree(Label label,
                      List<Tree> daughterTreesList)

  Create parse tree with given root and array of daughter trees.

  Parameters:
    `label` - root label of tree to construct. For a SimpleTree this parameter is ignored
    `daughterTreesList` - list of daughter trees to construct.

Method Detail

### children

    public Tree[] children()

  Returns an array of children for the current node, or null if it is a leaf.

  Specified by:
    `children` in class `Tree`
  Returns:
    The children of the node
  See Also:
    `Tree.getChildrenAsList()`

### setChildren

    public void setChildren(Tree[] children)

  Sets the children of this `Tree`. If given `null`, this method sets the Tree's children to a unique zero-length Tree[] array.

  Overrides:
    `setChildren` in class `Tree`
  Parameters:
    `children` - An array of child trees
  See Also:
    `Tree.setChildren(List)`

### treeFactory

    public TreeFactory treeFactory()

  Return a `TreeFactory` that produces trees of the `SimpleTree` type. The factory returned is always the same one (a singleton).

  Specified by:
    `treeFactory` in class `Tree`
  Returns:
    a factory to produce simple (unlabelled) trees

### factory

    public static TreeFactory factory()

  Return a `TreeFactory` that produces trees of the `SimpleTree` type. The factory returned is always the same one (a singleton).

  Returns:
    a factory to produce simple (unlabelled) trees
