226. Invert Binary Tree - Easy

Invert a binary tree.

Example:

Input:

     4
   /   \
  2     7
 / \   / \
1   3 6   9

Output:

     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 f*** off.

 

time: O(n), space: O(logn)

/**
 * Definition for a binary tree node.
 * public class TreeNode {
 *     int val;
 *     TreeNode left;
 *     TreeNode right;
 *     TreeNode(int x) { val = x; }
 * }
 */
class Solution {
    public TreeNode invertTree(TreeNode root) {
        if(root == null || root.left == null && root.right == null) {
            return root;
        }
        TreeNode tmp = root.left;
        root.left = root.right;
        root.right = tmp;
        invertTree(root.left);
        invertTree(root.right);
        return root;
    }
