116. Populating Next Right Pointers in Each Node - jiejackyzhang/leetcode-note GitHub Wiki

Given a binary tree

    struct TreeLinkNode {
      TreeLinkNode *left;
      TreeLinkNode *right;
      TreeLinkNode *next;
    }

Populate each next pointer to point to its next right node. If there is no next right node, the next pointer should be set to NULL.

Initially, all next pointers are set to NULL.

Note:

• You may only use constant extra space.
• You may assume that it is a perfect binary tree (ie, all leaves are at the same level, and every parent has two children).

For example,

Given the following perfect binary tree,

         1
       /  \
      2    3
     / \  / \
    4  5  6  7

After calling your function, the tree should look like:

         1 -> NULL
       /  \
      2 -> 3 -> NULL
     / \  / \
    4->5->6->7 -> NULL

解题思路为BFS。 注意到两点：

1. 每个node的left.next都指向它的right；
2. 每个node的right.next都指向node.next的left（若node.next不为null）或为null（若node.next为null）。

public class Solution {
    public void connect(TreeLinkNode root) {
        if(root == null) return;
        if(root.left != null) {
            root.left.next = root.right;
            root.right.next = root.next == null ? null : root.next.left;
        }
        connect(root.left);
        connect(root.right);
    }
}
