Invert a binary tree.
4 / 2 7 / / 1 3 6 9
to
4 / 7 2 / / 9 6 3 1
Trivia:
This problem was inspired by this original tweet by Max Howell:
Google: 90% of our engineers use the software you wrote (Homebrew), but you can’t invert a binary tree on a whiteboard so fuck off.
/** * Definition for a binary tree node. * struct TreeNode { * int val; * TreeNode *left; * TreeNode *right; * TreeNode(int x) : val(x), left(NULL), right(NULL) {} * }; */ class Solution { public: TreeNode* invertTree(TreeNode* root) { if (NULL == root) { return NULL; } TreeNode* revert_left = root->left ? invertTree(root->left) : NULL; TreeNode* revert_right = root->right ? invertTree(root->right) : NULL; root->left = revert_right; root->right = revert_left; return root; } };
