[LeetCode] Convert Sorted List to Binary Search Tree 将有序链表转为二叉搜索树

 

Given a singly linked list where elements are sorted in ascending order, convert it to a height balanced BST.

For this problem, a height-balanced binary tree is defined as a binary tree in which the depth of the two subtrees of every node never differ by more than 1.

Example:

Given the sorted linked list: [-10,-3,0,5,9],

One possible answer is: [0,-3,9,-10,null,5], which represents the following height balanced BST:

      0
     / \
   -3   9
   /   /
 -10  5

 

这道题是要求把有序链表转为二叉搜索树,和之前那道 Convert Sorted Array to Binary Search Tree 思路完全一样,只不过是操作的数据类型有所差别,一个是数组,一个是链表。数组方便就方便在可以通过index直接访问任意一个元素,而链表不行。由于二分查找法每次需要找到中点,而链表的查找中间点可以通过快慢指针来操作,可参见之前的两篇博客 Reorder List 和 Linked List Cycle II 有关快慢指针的应用。找到中点后,要以中点的值建立一个数的根节点,然后需要把原链表断开,分为前后两个链表,都不能包含原中节点,然后再分别对这两个链表递归调用原函数,分别连上左右子节点即可。代码如下:

解法一:

class Solution {
public:
    TreeNode *sortedListToBST(ListNode* head) {
        if (!head) return NULL;
        if (!head->next) return new TreeNode(head->val);
        ListNode *slow = head, *fast = head, *last = slow;
        while (fast->next && fast->next->next) {
            last = slow;
            slow = slow->next;
            fast = fast->next->next;
        }
        fast = slow->next;
        last->next = NULL;
        TreeNode *cur = new TreeNode(slow->val);
        if (head != slow) cur->left = sortedListToBST(head);
        cur->right = sortedListToBST(fast);
        return cur;
    }
};

 

我们也可以采用如下的递归方法,重写一个递归函数,有两个输入参数,子链表的起点和终点,因为知道了这两个点,链表的范围就可以确定了,而直接将中间部分转换为二叉搜索树即可,递归函数中的内容跟上面解法中的极其相似,参见代码如下:

 

解法二:

class Solution {
public:
    TreeNode* sortedListToBST(ListNode* head) {
        if (!head) return NULL;
        return helper(head, NULL);
    }
    TreeNode* helper(ListNode* head, ListNode* tail) {
        if (head == tail) return NULL;
        ListNode *slow = head, *fast = head;
        while (fast != tail && fast->next != tail) {
            slow = slow->next;
            fast = fast->next->next;
        }
        TreeNode *cur = new TreeNode(slow->val);
        cur->left = helper(head, slow);
        cur->right = helper(slow->next, tail);
        return cur;
    }
};
