Challenge Seed

var displayTree = (tree) => console.log(JSON.stringify(tree, null, 2));
function Node(value) {
    this.value = value;
    this.left = null;
    this.right = null;
}

function BinarySearchTree() {
    this.root = null;
    // case 1: target has no children, change code below this line
}

After Test

console.info('after the test');
