Hello All, why do we need to

Node* FindMin(Node* root){ while(root->left != NULL) root = root->left; return root;}
find Min and use of Inorder here when we have already used it in delete Function.? I have a doubt on this.? can anybody help me here.? And one more mistake is char data is used instead of integer(int data). so kindly change it.?

Inorder function to print the tree in order list like this : 1 3 4 5 10 11

in the code given by mycodeschool, there is a logical bug, which can cause a Segmentation Error
root=NULL, and root = root->right; this will not be reflected outside the function,
it should be *root=NULL, and the function definition should be like this struct Node* Delete(struct Node **root, int data)

my approach without recursive (gfg practice):-

void delLeafnode(Node *cur, Node *prev, int X)
{
if(Xdata) prev->left = NULL;
else prev->right = NULL;
}

void deloneNode(Node *cur, Node *prev, int X)
{
if(Xdata)
{
if(cur->left) prev->left = cur->left;
else prev->left = cur->right;
}
else
{
if(cur->left) prev->right = cur->left;
else prev->right = cur->right;
}

}

Node *findmin(Node *root, int X)
{
Node *cur = root->right;
Node *prev = root;
Node *temp;
while(cur!=NULL)
{
if(!cur->left)
{
temp = cur;
if(!cur->left && !cur->right) delLeafnode(cur, prev, X) ;
else if(!cur->left || !cur->right) deloneNode(cur, prev, X);
}
prev = cur;
cur = cur->left;
}
return temp;
}

Node *deleteNode(Node *root, int X) {
Node *cur = root;
Node *prev = NULL;

if(root->data==X && (!root || (!root->left && !root->right))) return NULL;
while(cur!=NULL)
{
    if(cur->data == X)
    {
        if(!cur->left && !cur->right)
        {
            delLeafnode(cur, prev, X);
        }
        
        else if(!cur->left || !cur->right)
        {
            deloneNode(cur, prev, X);
        }
        
        else if(cur->left && cur->right)
        {
            Node *node = findmin(cur, X);
            cur->data = node->data;
        }
    }
    
    prev = cur;
    if(X<cur->data) cur = cur->left;
    else cur = cur->right;
}
return root;

}

How this will not be reflected outside the function if he has equated the function to the original root variable by root = Delete(root,5);?
By using pointer to a pointer you are creating a mess for yourself, nothing else.
Better check this with the Search_Node function.

Hey, I just want everyone to know that after Deleting a node from a BST, better check if the node is present or not by the Search_Node Function. Call the Search_Node function in the main function and check if the value returned by the Search_Node function is true or false.
Here is the Definition:
bool Search_Node(BstNode *root, int data)
{
if(root==NULL)
return false;
if(data==root->data)
return true;
else if(data>root->data)
return Search_Node(root->right, data);
else
return Search_Node(root->left, data);
}

Here's how you can check:
if(Search_Node(root, 20)==true) // here 20 is the data for the deleted node
printf("FOUND\n");
else
printf("NOT FOUND\n");

It should return temp once deleted root in single child case
