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 3Binary tree
[2,1,3]
, return true.
Example 2:
1 / \ 2 3
Binary tree [1,2,3]
, return false.
思路:维护一个最大值和一个最小值,向下迭代树,左节点更新最大值,右节点更新最小值,随时进行判断。
# Definition for a binary tree node.
# class TreeNode(object):
# def __init__(self, x):
# self.val = x

def ValidBST(self, root, min, max):
if root == None:
return True
if root.val >= max or root.val <= min:
return False
return self.ValidBST(root.left, min, root.val) and self.ValidBST(root.right, root.val, max)
def isValidBST(self, root):

return self.ValidBST(root, -99999999999, 999999999999)
