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.

 

这道题让我们翻转二叉树，是树的基本操作之一，不算难题。最下面那句话实在有些木有节操啊，不知道是Google说给谁的。反正这道题确实难度不大，可以用递归和非递归两种方法来解。先来看递归的方法，写法非常简洁，五行代码搞定，交换当前左右节点，并直接调用递归即可，代码如下：

 

// Recursion
class Solution {
public:
    TreeNode* invertTree(TreeNode* root) {
        if (!root) return NULL;
        TreeNode *tmp = root->left;
        root->left = invertTree(root->right);
        root->right = invertTree(tmp);
        return root;
    }
};

 

非递归的方法也不复杂，跟二叉树的层序遍历一样，需要用queue来辅助，先把根节点排入队列中，然后从队中取出来，交换其左右节点，如果存在则分别将左右节点在排入队列中，以此类推直到队列中木有节点了停止循环，返回root即可。代码如下：

 

// Non-Recursion
class Solution {
public:
    TreeNode* invertTree(TreeNode* root) {
        if (!root) return NULL;
        queue<TreeNode*> q;
        q.push(root);
        while (!q.empty()) {
            TreeNode *node = q.front(); q.pop();
            TreeNode *tmp = node->left;
            node->left = node->right;
            node->right = tmp;
            if (node->left) q.push(node->left);
            if (node->right) q.push(node->right);
        }
        return root;
    }
};
