Binary Tree Preorder Traversal
ID: 144; easy
Solution 1 (Go)
/**
* Definition for a binary tree node.
* type TreeNode struct {
* Val int
* Left *TreeNode
* Right *TreeNode
* }
*/
func preorderTraversal(root *TreeNode) []int {
res := make([]int, 0)
preorderHelper(root, &res)
return res
}
func preorderHelper(root *TreeNode, res *[]int) {
if root != nil {
*res = append(*res, root.Val)
preorderHelper(root.Left, res)
preorderHelper(root.Right, res)
}
}
Solution 2 (Java)
/**
* Definition of TreeNode:
* public class TreeNode {
* public int val;
* public TreeNode left, right;
* public TreeNode(int val) {
* this.val = val;
* this.left = this.right = null;
* }
* }
*/
public class Solution {
/**
* @param root: A Tree
* @return: Preorder in ArrayList which contains node values.
*/
public List<Integer> preorderTraversal(TreeNode root) {
List<Integer> result = new ArrayList<>();
if (root == null) return result;
preorderTraversalHelper(root, result);
return result;
}
private void preorderTraversalHelper(TreeNode root, List<Integer> result) {
if (root == null) return;
result.add(root.val);
preorderTraversalHelper(root.left, result);
preorderTraversalHelper(root.right, result);
}
}
Notes
Recursion / Divide and conquer
Solution 3 (Java)
/**
* Definition of TreeNode:
* public class TreeNode {
* public int val;
* public TreeNode left, right;
* public TreeNode(int val) {
* this.val = val;
* this.left = this.right = null;
* }
* }
*/
public class Solution {
/**
* @param root: A Tree
* @return: Preorder in ArrayList which contains node values.
*/
public List<Integer> preorderTraversal(TreeNode root) {
List<Integer> result = new ArrayList<>();
Deque<TreeNode> stack = new ArrayDeque<>();
if (root == null) return result;
stack.push(root);
while (!stack.isEmpty()) {
TreeNode node = stack.pop();
result.add(node.val);
if (node.right != null) {
stack.push(node.right);
}
if (node.left != null) {
stack.push(node.left);
}
}
return result;
}
}
