Question

897. Increasing Order Search Tree

中文文档

Description

Given the root of a binary search tree, rearrange the tree in in-order so that the leftmost node in the tree is now the root of the tree, and every node has no left child and only one right child.

 

Example 1:

Input: root = [5,3,6,2,4,null,8,1,null,null,null,7,9]
Output: [1,null,2,null,3,null,4,null,5,null,6,null,7,null,8,null,9]

Example 2:

Input: root = [5,1,7]
Output: [1,null,5,null,7]

 

Constraints:

• The number of nodes in the given tree will be in the range [1, 100].
• 0 <= Node.val <= 1000

Solutions

Solution 1: DFS In-order Traversal

We define a virtual node $dummy$, initially the right child of $dummy$ points to the root node $root$, and a pointer $prev$ points to $dummy$.

We perform an in-order traversal on the binary search tree. During the traversal, each time we visit a node, we point the right child of $prev$ to it, then set the left child of the current node to null, and assign the current node to $prev$ for the next traversal.

After the traversal ends, the original binary search tree is modified into a singly linked list with only right child nodes. We then return the right child of the virtual node $dummy$.

The time complexity is $O(n)$, and the space complexity is $O(n)$. Here, $n$ is the number of nodes in the binary search tree.
