450. Delete Node in a BST

问题描述：

Given a root node reference of a BST and a key, delete the node with the given key in the BST. Return the root node reference (possibly updated) of the BST.

Basically, the deletion can be divided into two stages:

1. Search for a node to remove.
2. If the node is found, delete the node.

 

Note: Time complexity should be O(height of tree).

Example:

root = [5,3,6,2,4,null,7]
key = 3

    5
   / \
  3   6
 / \   \
2   4   7

Given key to delete is 3. So we find the node with value 3 and delete it.

One valid answer is [5,4,6,2,null,null,7], shown in the following BST.

    5
   / \
  4   6
 /     \
2       7

Another valid answer is [5,2,6,null,4,null,7].

    5
   / \
  2   6
   \   \
    4   7

 

解题思路：

首先考虑是否会出现树中不含有目标节点的情况：

　　若不含目标节点，则可以直接返回root，我们可以用一个bool值来标志是否找到目标节点。

找到目标节点后，目标节点可能出现的位置：

　　1.根节点

　　2.树中

　　3.叶子节点

其实无论如何我们要做的首先是融合目标节点的子树，那么此时又有4中情况：

　　1.两个子树都不存在（即叶子节点）：返回null

　　2.只存在一个子树：存在左子树或右子树，这个时候融合结果为存在的那一课子树，则我们可以直接返回存在的子树

　　3.两个子树都存在：我的选择是将右子树加到左子树的最右的叶子节点。

此时我们有融合好的新的子树的根节点：newRoot

若我们删除的是根节点：则直接返回newRoot

其他的则可以将融合后的新子树附加到原来节点的位置上

        TreeNode* pre = NULL;

        while(cur || !stk.empty()){
            if(cur){
                if(cur->val == key){
                    findIt = true;
                    break;
                }

        if(!root->left && !root->right) return NULL;
        else if(root->left && !root->right) return root->left;
        else if(!root->left && root->right) return root->right;
        TreeNode* unionPoint = root->left;
        while(unionPoint->right) unionPoint = unionPoint->right;
        unionPoint->right = root->right;
        return root->left;
    }
