Of course. If the compiler does not complain, then it found a matching 
overloaded function (constructor). It would give an error, if it cannot 
find a matching function. Try node *root = new node(5,5); to see, what 
error would you get.

Anyway, why don't you use built-in C++ storage? It already has vectors, 
lists, etc.
