LeetCode Populating Next Right Pointers in Each Node 2
Description
Follow up for problem “Populating Next Right Pointers in Each Node”.
What if the given tree could be any binary tree? Would your previous solution still work?
Note:
You may only use constant extra space.
For example,
Given the following binary tree,
1
/ \
2 3
/ \ \
4 5 7
After calling your function, the tree should look like:
1 -> NULL
/ \
2 -> 3 -> NULL
/ \ \
4-> 5 -> 7 -> NULL
The original problem is here.
The original code is here.
My Solution
I solve this problem in C++, as below:
/*

*Author: shuaijiang

*/
#include<iostream>
#include<vector>
#include<stdlib.h>
using namespace std;
/**
* Definition for binary tree with next pointer.
* struct TreeLinkNode {
* int val;
* TreeLinkNode *left, *right, *next;
* TreeLinkNode(int x) : val(x), left(NULL), right(NULL), next(NULL) {}
* };
*/
class Solution {
public:
void connect(TreeLinkNode *root) {
if(root == NULL)
return;
vector<TreeLinkNode*> currLevel;
vector<TreeLinkNode*> nextLevel;
currLevel.push_back(root);
while(currLevel.size()>0){
for(int i=0;i<currLevel.size();i++){
TreeLinkNode * node = currLevel[i];
if(i+1<currLevel.size())
node->next = currLevel[i+1];
if(node->left != NULL)
nextLevel.push_back(node->left);
if(node->right != NULL)
nextLevel.push_back(node->right);
}
currLevel = nextLevel;
nextLevel.clear();
}
}
};
Note
To solve the problem, I use a vector to save the nodes of each level, and Populat next pointer of each node to point to its next right node.
