One way to serialize a binary tree is to use pre-order traversal. When we encounter a non-null node, we record the node's value. If it is a null node, we record using a sentinel value such as #
.
_9_ / \ 3 2 / \ / \ 4 1 # 6 / \ / \ / \ # # # # # #
For example, the above binary tree can be serialized to the string "9,3,4,#,#,1,#,#,2,#,6,#,#"
, where #
represents a null node.
Given a string of comma separated values, verify whether it is a correct preorder traversal serialization of a binary tree. Find an algorithm without reconstructing the tree.
Each comma separated value in the string must be either an integer or a character '#'
representing null
pointer.
You may assume that the input format is always valid, for example it could never contain two consecutive commas such as "1,,3"
.
Example 1:
"9,3,4,#,#,1,#,#,2,#,6,#,#"
Return true
Example 2:
"1,#"
Return false
Example 3:
"9,#,#,1"
Return false
利用一棵树结点的入度和出度和为0. 就是除了根结点,每一个结点都有一个入度, 非空结点有两个出度。这样在构造一棵树的时候任何时候都有 出度 >= 入度, 因为只有在补充完所有的空结点之后入度和才等于出度.所以在任何时候只要 入度 > 出度 , 就说明我们多补充了空结点, 因为空结点只有入度没有出度.
最后遍历完所有结点之后看入度和出度是否相等即可判读是否是一颗完整的序列.
public class Solution {

for(int i=0;i<=strs.length-1;i++) {
degree ++;
if(degree > 0) {
return false;
}
if(!strs[i].equals("#")) {
degree -= 2;
}
}
return degree == 0;
