Hi Aditya,

It's hard for us to answer without any specific question. Perhaps this 
will help: 
https://scikit-learn.org/stable/developers/contributing.html#reading-the-existing-code-base

The tree code is quite complex, because it is very generic and can 
support many different settings (multioutput, sparse data, etc) as well 
as many different parameters like max_features, splitter, presort... I 
would suggest being familiar with the different parameters before diving 
into the code.

Nicolas
