題目:寫一個BST遍歷器
1. 初始化遍歷器
2. next() will return the next smallest number in the BST
3. next() and hasNext() should run in average O(1) time and uses O(h) memory, where h is the height of the tree
解題思路:
因爲BST的最小值永遠在最左邊,如果沒有限制的話,只要用一個隊列來存中序遍歷的結果,即可;
可是這裏只能用O(h)的空間;h爲高度,所以,可以用一個棧來存根節點的所有左孩子,棧頂永遠存的是最小值,當next()
的時候,如果節點有右孩子,則以它爲根節點,所有的左孩子入棧;
/**
* Definition for binary tree
* public class TreeNode {
* int val;
* TreeNode left;
* TreeNode right;
* TreeNode(int x) { val = x; }
* }
*/
public class BSTIterator {
LinkedList<TreeNode> stack = new LinkedList<TreeNode> ();
public BSTIterator(TreeNode root) {
addToStack(root);
}
/** @return whether we have a next smallest number */
public boolean hasNext() {
return !stack.isEmpty();
}
/** @return the next smallest number */
public int next() {
TreeNode node = stack.removeLast();
addToStack(node.right);
return node.val;
}
private void addToStack(TreeNode root) {
while(root != null) {
stack.add(root);
root = root.left;
}
}
}
/**
* Your BSTIterator will be called like this:
* BSTIterator i = new BSTIterator(root);
* while (i.hasNext()) v[f()] = i.next();
*/
