Given a binary tree, determine if it is a valid binary search tree (BST).
Assume a BST is defined as follows:
The left subtree of a node contains only nodes with keys less than the node’s key.
The right subtree of a node contains only nodes with keys greater than the node’s key.
Both the left and right subtrees must also be binary search trees.
Example 1:
2
/ \
1 3
Binary tree [2,1,3], return true.
Example 2:
1
/ \
2 3
Binary tree [1,2,3], return false.
判断BST是否合法。
思路一:先按BST规则遍历root到List,然后判断是否合法。
这样比较繁琐,但是避免了一个问题。根节点和左右子节点比的话是没有问题的,但BST的定义是,何为二分查找树?1) 左子树的值都比根节点小;2) 右子树的值都比根节点大;3) 左右子树也必须满足上面两个条件。所以这是不行的。思路二就没考虑这个问题。

if (root == null) return true;
if (root.left == null && root.right == null) return true;

}
public void inOrderTraversal(TreeNode root) {
if (root == null) return;

list.Add(root.val);

}
}
思路二:
if (root == null) return true;
Stack<TreeNode> stack = new Stack<TreeNode>();
TreeNode pre = null;
while (root != null || stack.Count()!=0) {
while (root != null) {
stack.Push(root);
root = root.left;
}
root = stack.Pop();
if(pre != null && root.val <= pre.val) return false;
pre = root;
root = root.right;
}
return true;
