Title

the problem link

Given a binary tree, find its minimum depth.

The minimum depth is the number of nodes along the shortest path from the root node down to the nearest leaf node.

Note: A leaf is a node with no children.

Example:

Given binary tree [3,9,20,null,null,15,7],

    3
   / \
  9  20
    /  \
   15   7

return its minimum depth = 2.

求树最小的深度,要注意陷阱,如果仅有一个孩子的话,就不是min(left,right)+1了,因为有个0,所以是其中一个+1

Solution

//cpp:
/**
 * Definition for a binary tree node.
 * struct TreeNode {
 *     int val;
 *     TreeNode *left;
 *     TreeNode *right;
 *     TreeNode(int x) : val(x), left(NULL), right(NULL) {}
 * };
 */
class Solution {
public:
    int minDepth(TreeNode* root) {
        if(!root)
            return 0;
        int l=minDepth(root->left);
        int r=minDepth(root->right);
        return (l==0||r==0)?l+r+1:min(l,r)+1;
    }
};
