Company employees (using binary trees)

Good evening everyone.

My colleague and I have been given a task to create a list with the employes of a company using binary trees. Each employee/node has to contain the following information:

- Employe name
- Rank
- ID Number
- monthly Salary

We have to write a C program (using Codeblocks) which builds the company tree with the information above and afterwards lists all the employes who have a salary bigger then a number specified by the user.

So far so good. We've had a look on the examples on the internet and after finding one which looked friendly enough we started working on that one to suit our needs. Credits for the original source code to: C Program to Implement Binary Search Tree Traversal - Basic C Programs | C Programming Examples

We've reached the point where we're able to insert the required information but being able to list all the employes who's salary is bigger then the number given by the user seems to be rather difficult to achieve. I'll include the code next, any kind of help will be greatly appreciated. We have left almost the entire pieces of the original code and we are aware that the are still things which are not required for our assignment, which only requires to enter the 4 information above and afterwards display the employes with the before mentioned condition concerning their salary.

Code:

You've got lots of "if" statements in your code as it stands; surely, you can figure out how to write an if statement that only prints when the salary is greater than a given number.

And you've got three ways of traveling through the entire tree at your disposal, so choose one of them to use.
