Search for an item (asymptotically)In the worst-case scenario, AVL trees have better runtime than RB trees, with O(log n) versus O(n). AVL trees are generally preferred in this case because they provide a shorter answer, making them a better option for time-sensitive applications.Q11.2: Search for an item (using benchmark)RB trees have a shorter runtime than AVL trees in the average-case scenario, but the runtime can vary widely depending on the benchmark. As a result, there is no "main answer" to this question, as the outcome depends on the benchmark used.
