Populating Next Right Pointers in Each Node
OJ:
Given a binary tree
struct TreeLinkNode { TreeLinkNode *left; TreeLinkNode *right; TreeLinkNode *next; }
Populate each next pointer to point to its next right node. If there is no next right node, the next pointer should be set to NULL
.
Initially, all next pointers are set to NULL
.
Note:
- You may only use constant extra space.
- You may assume that it is a perfect binary tree (ie, all leaves are at the same level, and every parent has two children).
For example, Given the following perfect binary tree,
1 / \ 2 3 / \ / \ 4 5 6 7
After calling your function, the tree should look like:
1 -> NULL / \ 2 -> 3 -> NULL / \ / \ 4->5->6->7 -> NULL 思想: 常量空间要求,决定了不能使用递归。满二叉树,简单循环,每次修改一层即可。
/** * Definition for binary tree with next pointer. * struct TreeLinkNode { * int val; * TreeLinkNode *left, *right, *next; * TreeLinkNode(int x) : val(x), left(NULL), right(NULL), next(NULL) {} * }; */class Solution {public: void connect(TreeLinkNode *root) { TreeLinkNode *p = root; while(p && p->left) { p->left->next = p->right; TreeLinkNode *pre = p, *cur = p->next; while(cur) { pre->right->next = cur->left; cur->left->next = cur->right; pre = cur; cur = cur->next; } p = p->left; } }};
Populating Next Right Pointers in Each Node II
OJ:
Follow up for problem "Populating Next Right Pointers in Each Node".
What if the given tree could be any binary tree? Would your previous solution still work?
Note:
- You may only use constant extra space.
For example, Given the following binary tree,
1 / \ 2 3 / \ \ 4 5 7
After calling your function, the tree should look like:
1 -> NULL / \ 2 -> 3 -> NULL / \ \ 4-> 5 -> 7 -> NULL
思想同上: 但是下一层最开始结点和连接过程中链表的第一个结点不易确定,所以需要设定两个变量来保存。
/** * Definition for binary tree with next pointer. * struct TreeLinkNode { * int val; * TreeLinkNode *left, *right, *next; * TreeLinkNode(int x) : val(x), left(NULL), right(NULL), next(NULL) {} * }; */class Solution {public: void connect(TreeLinkNode *root) { TreeLinkNode *curListNode, *startNode, *curNode; startNode = root; while(startNode) { curNode = startNode; startNode = curListNode = NULL; while(curNode) { if(curNode->left) { if(startNode == NULL) startNode = curNode->left; if(curListNode == NULL) curListNode = curNode->left; else { curListNode->next = curNode->left; curListNode = curListNode->next; } } if(curNode->right) { if(startNode == NULL) startNode =curNode->right; if(curListNode == NULL) curListNode = curNode->right; else { curListNode->next = curNode->right; curListNode = curListNode->next; } } curNode = curNode->next; } } }};
