Given a node
in a binary search tree, find the in-order successor of that node in the BST.
If that node has no in-order successor, return null
.
The successor of a node
is the node with the smallest key greater than node.val
.
You will have direct access to the node but not to the root of the tree. Each node will have a reference to its parent node. Below is the definition for Node
:
class Node { public int val; public Node left; public Node right; public Node parent; }
Follow up:
Could you solve it without looking up any of the node's values?
Example 1:
Input: tree = [2,1,3], node = 1 Output: 2 Explanation: 1's in-order successor node is 2. Note that both the node and the return
value is of Node type.Example 2:
Input: tree = [5,3,6,2,4,null,null,1], node = 6 Output: null Explanation: There is no in-order successor of the current node, so the answer is null.Example 3:
Input: tree = [15,6,18,3,7,17,20,2,4,null,13,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,9],
node = 15 Output: 17Example 4:
Input: tree = [15,6,18,3,7,17,20,2,4,null,13,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,9],
node = 13 Output: 15Example 5:
Input: tree = [0], node = 0 Output: null
Constraints:
-10^5 <= Node.val <= 10^5
1 <= Number of Nodes <= 10^4
- All Nodes will have unique values.
二叉搜索树中的中序后继 II。
这道题是285题的延续,但是题设稍微有些变化。这道题给的是一个随机的节点 node,不给你根节点了;给你这个节点 node 的同时,可以允许你访问这个节点的 val,左孩子,右孩子和父亲节点。依然是请你返回这个节点的中序后继。
思路分两部分,如果这个节点自己有右子树怎么办,和如果这个节点没有右子树怎么办。第一种情况,如果 node 有右子树,那么要找的节点是其右子树里面最小的左孩子。
第二种情况,如果 node 没有右子树,那么要找的中序后继基本上就是在找这个节点的某个父亲节点。但是这里面又分两种子情况,一种是如果我是一个左子树,我要找的很显然是我的最直接的父亲节点,比如例子4里面的2,我找的应该是3,3就是2的父亲节点。还有一种情况是比如我是4(例子2),我是左子树的最右孩子,我的中序遍历的后继节点是根节点5,我不光要试图往父亲节点跑,同时我还需要判断,我每往上走一步的时候,我到达的这个节点的右孩子到底是不是我自己,否则就会和第一种子情况一样,没法区分开了。
