230. Kth Smallest Element in a BST
Given a binary search tree, write a function kthSmallest
to find the kth smallest element in it.
Note:
You may assume k is always valid, 1 ≤ k ≤ BST's total elements.
Follow up:
What if the BST is modified (insert/delete operations) often and you need to find the kth smallest frequently? How would you optimize the kthSmallest routine?
解题思路:
中序遍历即可
/**
* Definition for a binary tree node.
* struct TreeNode {
* int val;
* TreeNode *left;
* TreeNode *right;
* TreeNode(int x) : val(x), left(NULL), right(NULL) {}
* };
*/
class Solution {
public:
int dp(TreeNode* root, int& k){
if(root==NULL)return 0;
if(root->left!=NULL){ //左孩子不为空
int n=dp(root->left,k);
if(k<1)return n;
}
if(k--==1)return root->val;
else return dp(root->right,k);
}
int kthSmallest(TreeNode* root, int k) {
return dp(root,k);
}
};
