LeetCode 156 Binary Tree Upside Downnode
Given a binary tree where all the right nodes are either leaf nodes with a sibling (a left node that shares the same parent node) or empty, flip it upside down and turn it into a tree where the original right nodes turned into left leaf nodes. Return the new root.ide
Example:指针
Input: [1,2,3,4,5]
code
1 / \ 2 3 / \ 4 5
Output: return the root of the binary tree [4,5,2,#,#,3,1]
翻转之后以下:递归
4 / \ 5 2 / \ 3 1
解题思路:
翻转的形式一开始不是很清楚,可是discuss里面的高票答案给了一个很好的解释。看例子,树的左边最深的底层是4,4是新的root。对于每一个root node,将连接右孩子的指针去掉,将root node变为当前左孩子的left node,root node成为左孩子的right node。ip
1 / x 2 -- 3 / x 4 -- 5 ^ new root
递归的写法:leetcode
public TreeNode upsideDownBinaryTree(TreeNode root) { if (root == null || root.left == null) { return root; } //递归调用获得新的root,而且沿途改变结构。 TreeNode newRoot = upsideDownBinaryTree(root.left); root.left.left = root.right; root.left.right = root; //千万记得将root node 的左右两边设为null root.left = null; root.right = null; return newRoot; }
遍历的解法
遍历的解法须要四个指针,如图所示,每次先update next,而后对swap上一个node的右孩子和这个node的左孩子,因此每次咱们须要一个temp来记录上一个node的右边孩子。get
prev -> 1 / x curr -> 2 -- 3 <-temp / x next-> 4 -- 5 ^ new root
代码以下it
public TreeNode upsideDownBinaryTree(TreeNode root) { //iterative TreeNode curr = root; TreeNode prev = null; TreeNode next = null; TreeNode temp = null; while(curr != null) { next = curr.left; //swap nodes, we need to keep a temp to track the right node curr.left = temp; temp = curr.right; curr.right = prev; prev = curr; curr = next; } return prev;
