Title

the problem link

Given a binary tree, you need to compute the length of the diameter of the tree. The diameter of a binary tree is the length of the longest path between any two nodes in a tree. This path may or may not pass through the root.

Example: Given a binary tree

      1
     / \
    2   3
   / \     
  4   5    

Return 3, which is the length of the path [4,2,1,3] or [5,2,1,3].

Note: The length of path between two nodes is represented by the number of edges between them.

Solution

这题目是求最长路径长度所覆盖的边,下面的是我做的,但是复杂了,重复计算

//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 depth(TreeNode* t){
        if(!t)
            return 0;
        return 1+max(depth(t->left),depth(t->right));
    }
    int diameterOfBinaryTree(TreeNode* root) {
        if(!root)
            return 0;
        return max(depth(root->left)+depth(root->right)+1-1,max(diameterOfBinaryTree(root->left),diameterOfBinaryTree(root->right)));
    }
};

改进

参考solution,发现,直接在depth中求Max(ans)就好了,因为在求root的maxdepth的时候会递归到所有的节点

class Solution {
    int ans;
    public int diameterOfBinaryTree(TreeNode root) {
        ans = 1;
        depth(root);
        return ans - 1;
    }
    public int depth(TreeNode node) {
        if (node == null) return 0;
        int L = depth(node.left);
        int R = depth(node.right);
        ans = Math.max(ans, L+R+1);
        return Math.max(L, R) + 1;
    }
}
