[英]Sum of last N nodes in a binary search tree
I want to write a function that obtains a number N and a binary search tree, then the function needs to sum the value of the last N nodes of the tree.我想写一个 function 得到一个数 N 和一个二叉搜索树,那么 function 需要对树的最后 N 个节点的值求和。 from higher to lower value of the nodes.
节点的值从高到低。 I cant use auxiliar functions or static variable.
我不能使用辅助功能或 static 变量。
For example, if the function obtains that binary search tree and the value of N its 3, then the output would be: 7+6+5.例如,如果 function 获得该二叉搜索树并且 N 的值为 3,则 output 将为:7+6+5。 And if N its 4 it would be: 7+6+5+3.
如果 N 为 4,则为:7+6+5+3。
Any ideas for an algorithm?对算法有什么想法吗?
You can simply visit the tree in reverse order, that means starting from root and do three things:您可以简单地以相反的顺序访问树,这意味着从根开始并做三件事:
And stop iterating when k items are accumulated.并在 k 项累积时停止迭代。
#include <iostream>
struct Node {
int value;
Node* left = nullptr;
Node* right = nullptr;
Node(int v) : value(v) {}
};
// Visit the tree in reverse order and get sum of top k items.
int sumK(Node* root, int& k) {
if (root == nullptr) return 0;
int sum = 0;
if (k > 0 && root->right) {
sum += sumK(root->right, k);
}
if (k > 0) {
sum += root->value;
k--;
}
if (k > 0 && root->left) {
sum += sumK(root->left, k);
}
return sum;
}
int main () {
// The following code hard coded a tree matches the picture in your question.
// I did not free the tree, so there will be memory leaking, but that is not relevant to this test.
Node* root = new Node(5);
root->right = new Node(6);
root->right->right = new Node(7);
root->left = new Node(3);
root->left->right = new Node(4);
root->left->left = new Node(2);
root->left->left->left = new Node(1);
// TODO: delete the tree after testing.
int k = 1;
std::cout << "k=" << k << " sum=" << sumK(root, k) << std::endl;
k = 3;
std::cout << "k=" << k << " sum=" << sumK(root, k) << std::endl;
k = 4;
std::cout << "k=" << k << " sum=" << sumK(root, k) << std::endl;
}
The output is: output 是:
k=1 sum=7
k=3 sum=18
k=4 sum=22
