[Leetcode/파이썬] 114. Flatten Binary Tree to Linked List

Flatten Binary Tree to Linked List

---

Given the root of a binary tree, flatten the tree into a "linked list":

• The "linked list" should use the same TreeNode class where the right child pointer points to the next node in the list and the left child pointer is always null.
• The "linked list" should be in the same order as a pre-order traversal of the binary tree.

 

Example 1:

Input: root = [1,2,5,3,4,null,6]
Output: [1,null,2,null,3,null,4,null,5,null,6]

Example 2:

Input: root = []
Output: []

Example 3:

Input: root = [0]
Output: [0]

 

Constraints:

• The number of nodes in the tree is in the range [0, 2000].
• -100 <= Node.val <= 100

 

Follow up: Can you flatten the tree in-place (with O(1) extra space)?

 

# Definition for a binary tree node.
# class TreeNode:
#     def __init__(self, val=0, left=None, right=None):
#         self.val = val
#         self.left = left
#         self.right = right
class Solution:
    def __init__(self) :
        self.prev = None

    def flatten(self, root: Optional[TreeNode]) -> None:
        """
        Do not return anything, modify root in-place instead.
        """
        if not root :
            return root
        
        self.flatten(root.right)
        
        self.flatten(root.left)

        root.right = self.prev
        root.left = None
        
        self.prev = root

이 문제는 그림을 그려보면 쉽게 이해가 가능하다.
