0437. Path Sum III (M)

Path Sum III (M)

题目

You are given a binary tree in which each node contains an integer value.

Find the number of paths that sum to a given value.

The path does not need to start or end at the root or a leaf, but it must go downwards (traveling only from parent nodes to child nodes).

The tree has no more than 1,000 nodes and the values are in the range -1,000,000 to 1,000,000.

Example:

root = [10,5,-3,3,2,null,11,3,-2,null,1], sum = 8

      10
     /  
    5   -3
   /     
  3   2   11
 /    
3  -2   1

Return 3. The paths that sum to 8 are:

1.  5 -> 3
2.  5 -> 2 -> 1
3. -3 -> 11

题意

在给定的树中找到一条从上到下的路径，使其和为给定值。路径的起点和终点可以是任意结点。

思路

双重递归。第一重递归确定根结点，限制需要查找的子树；第二重递归在该子树中找到从子树根结点出发和为sum的路径的个数。
