val remove : t -> t -> unit

remove child parent Remove child from parent

Precondition: child must be a child of parent.

If you are not sure that child belongs to parent, get parent child and check (by physical equality ==) that the computed parent and parent are the same.

Procedure to remove all children from a node:

let rec remove_children (node: t): unit =
    match first node with
    | None ->
        ()
    | Some child ->
        remove child node;
        remove_children node    (* tail recursion, compiled to a
                                   javascript loop. *)
val replace : t -> t -> t -> unit

replace new_child old_child parent

Put new_child at the position of old_child within parent which is the parent of old_child.

Precondition: old_child must be a child of parent.
