下面是递归BFS的Scala 2.11.4实现。为了简洁起见，我牺牲了尾部调用优化，但是TCOd版本非常相似。参见@snv的帖子。

import scala.collection.immutable.Queue

object RecursiveBfs {
  def bfs[A](tree: Tree[A], target: A): Boolean = {
    bfs(Queue(tree), target)
  }

  private def bfs[A](forest: Queue[Tree[A]], target: A): Boolean = {
    forest.dequeueOption exists {
      case (E, tail) => bfs(tail, target)
      case (Node(value, _, _), _) if value == target => true
      case (Node(_, l, r), tail) => bfs(tail.enqueue(List(l, r)), target)
    }
  }

  sealed trait Tree[+A]
  case class Node[+A](data: A, left: Tree[A], right: Tree[A]) extends Tree[A]
  case object E extends Tree[Nothing]
}

我找不到一种完全递归的方法(没有任何辅助数据结构)。但是如果队列Q是通过引用传递的，那么你可以得到下面这个愚蠢的尾部递归函数:

BFS(Q)
{
  if (|Q| > 0)
     v <- Dequeue(Q)
     Traverse(v)
     foreach w in children(v)
        Enqueue(Q, w)    

     BFS(Q)
}

设v为起始顶点

设G是问题中的图

下面是不使用队列的伪代码

Initially label v as visited as you start from v
BFS(G,v)
    for all adjacent vertices w of v in G:
        if vertex w is not visited:
            label w as visited
    for all adjacent vertices w of v in G:
        recursively call BFS(G,w)

下面是一个BFS递归遍历Python实现，用于没有周期的图。

def bfs_recursive(level):
    '''
     @params level: List<Node> containing the node for a specific level.
    '''
    next_level = []
    for node in level:
        print(node.value)
        for child_node in node.adjency_list:
            next_level.append(child_node)
    if len(next_level) != 0:
        bfs_recursive(next_level)


class Node:
    def __init__(self, value):
        self.value = value
        self.adjency_list = []

Here is a JavaScript Implementation that fakes Breadth First Traversal with Depth First recursion. I'm storing the node values at each depth inside an array, inside of a hash. If a level already exists(we have a collision), so we just push to the array at that level. You could use an array instead of a JavaScript object as well since our levels are numeric and can serve as array indices. You can return nodes, values, convert to a Linked List, or whatever you want. I'm just returning values for the sake of simplicity.

BinarySearchTree.prototype.breadthFirstRec = function() {

    var levels = {};

    var traverse = function(current, depth) {
        if (!current) return null;
        if (!levels[depth]) levels[depth] = [current.value];
        else levels[depth].push(current.value);
        traverse(current.left, depth + 1);
        traverse(current.right, depth + 1);
    };

    traverse(this.root, 0);
    return levels;
};


var bst = new BinarySearchTree();
bst.add(20, 22, 8, 4, 12, 10, 14, 24);
console.log('Recursive Breadth First: ', bst.breadthFirstRec());
/*Recursive Breadth First:  
{ '0': [ 20 ],
  '1': [ 8, 22 ],
  '2': [ 4, 12, 24 ],
  '3': [ 10, 14 ] } */

下面是一个使用迭代方法的实际广度优先遍历的示例。

BinarySearchTree.prototype.breadthFirst = function() {

    var result = '',
        queue = [],
        current = this.root;

    if (!current) return null;
    queue.push(current);

    while (current = queue.shift()) {
        result += current.value + ' ';
        current.left && queue.push(current.left);
        current.right && queue.push(current.right);
    }
    return result;
};

console.log('Breadth First: ', bst.breadthFirst());
//Breadth First:  20 8 22 4 12 24 10 14

我想在上面的答案中加上我的观点，如果语言支持生成器之类的东西，bfs可以协递归地完成。

首先，@Tanzelax的回答是:

宽度优先遍历传统上使用队列，而不是堆栈。队列和堆栈的性质几乎是相反的，因此试图使用调用堆栈(因此得名为堆栈)作为辅助存储(队列)几乎是注定要失败的

实际上，普通函数调用的堆栈不会像普通堆栈那样运行。但是生成器函数将暂停函数的执行，因此它给了我们产生下一层节点的子节点的机会，而无需深入研究节点的更深层次的后代。

下面的代码是Python中的递归bfs。

def bfs(root):
  yield root
  for n in bfs(root):
    for c in n.children:
      yield c

这里的直觉是:

BFS首先将根作为第一个结果返回 假设我们已经有了BFS序列，BFS中的下一层元素是序列中前一个节点的直接子节点 重复以上两个步骤
