Implement an iterator over a binary search tree (BST). Your iterator will be initialized with the root node of a BST.
Calling next()
will return the next smallest number in the BST.
Note: next()
and hasNext()
should run in average O(1) time and uses O(h) memory, where h is the height of the tree.
Solution: use stack to implement DFS.
#include <stack>
/**
* Definition for binary tree
* struct TreeNode {
* int val;
* TreeNode *left;
* TreeNode *right;
* TreeNode(int x) : val(x), left(NULL), right(NULL) {}
* };
*/
class BSTIterator {
private:
stack<TreeNode *> tree;
TreeNode* _root;
bool finish = false;
public:
BSTIterator(TreeNode *root) {
_root = root;
if(!root)
finish = true;
//insert most left into stack.
if(tree.empty() && !finish)
{
TreeNode* mostleft = _root;
while(mostleft){
tree.push(mostleft);
mostleft = mostleft->left;
}
}
}
/** @return whether we have a next smallest number */
bool hasNext() {
if(tree.empty() && finish)
return false;
else
return true;
}
/** @return the next smallest number */
int next() {
int visited_value = 0;
//DFS
if(!tree.empty() && !finish)
{
//visit.
TreeNode* visited = tree.top();
visited_value = visited->val;
tree.pop();
//insert right sub-tree.
if(visited->right){
TreeNode * t = visited->right;
while(t){
tree.push(t);
t = t->left;//push most left
}
}
if(tree.empty())
finish = true;//finished
}
return visited_value;
}
};
/**
* Your BSTIterator will be called like this:
* BSTIterator i = BSTIterator(root);
* while (i.hasNext()) cout << i.next();
