EXAMPLE
Trees are written in parenthesized form v(c1,c2,...) with children listed in increasing order of labels. Each label carries a sign: '-' indicates the color blue and '+' indicates the color red. For n = 3, the 11 trees are: 1-(2-,3-), 1-(2-(3-)), 1-(2+(3-,4-)), 1+(2-,3-,4-), 1+(2-,3-(4-)), 1+(2-(4-),3-), 1+(2-(3-),4-), 1+(2-,3+(4-,5-)), 1+(2+(4-,5-),3-), 1+(2+(3-,5-)4-), 1+(2+(3-,4-),5-).
