[LeetCode] 872. Leaf-Similar Trees 叶结点相似的树
Consider all the leaves of a binary tree. From left to right order, the values of those leaves form a *leaf value sequence.*
For example, in the given tree above, the leaf value sequence is (6, 7, 4, 9, 8).
Two binary trees are considered leaf-similar if their leaf value sequence is the same.
Return true if and only if the two given trees with head nodes root1 and root2 are leaf-similar.
这道题定义了一种叶相似树，就是说若两棵树的叶结点按照从左向右的顺序取出来排成序列，若两个序列相同，则说明二者是叶结点相似树。其实本质就是按从左到右的顺序打印二叉树的叶结点呗，那么根据这种顺序，我们采用先序遍历遍历比较好，遇到叶结点后直接将叶结点存入数组中，那么对于两个树遍历后就分别得到两个包含叶结点的数组，最后再比较一下这两个数组是否相同即可，参见代码如下：
解法一：
class Solution {
public:
bool leafSimilar(TreeNode* root1, TreeNode* root2) {
vector<int> leaf1, leaf2;
helper(root1, leaf1);
helper(root2, leaf2);
return leaf1 == leaf2;
}
void helper(TreeNode* node, vector<int>& leaf) {
if (!node) return;
if (!node->left && !node->right) {
leaf.push_back(node->val);
}
helper(node->left, leaf);
helper(node->right, leaf);
}
};
我们也可以不用数组，而是用两个字符串，那么在每个叶结点值直接要加上一个分隔符，这样才能保证不会错位，最后比较两个字符串是否相等即可，参见代码如下：
解法二：
class Solution {
public:
bool leafSimilar(TreeNode* root1, TreeNode* root2) {
string leaf1, leaf2;
helper(root1, leaf1);
helper(root2, leaf2);
return leaf1 == leaf2;
}
void helper(TreeNode* node, string& leaf) {
if (!node) return;
if (!node->left && !node->right) {
leaf += to_string(node->val) + "-";
}
helper(node->left, leaf);
helper(node->right, leaf);
}
};
