C++ Program to Find the Node with Minimum Value in a Binary Search Tree

This C++ program, displays the minimum element present in a binary search tree.

Here is the source code of the C++ program which creates a binary search tree on the basis of the inputs given and goes on traversing left from the root until the least value is encountered. This C++ program is successfully compiled and run on DevCpp, a C++ compiler. The program output is also shown below.

6
value entered in left
enter value of node
5
value entered in left
enter value of node
10
value entered in right
enter value of node
4
value entered in left
enter value of node
3
value entered in left
Minimum value in tree:3
