문제
풀이
처음에 제출한 코드는 TLE가 나왔다. 한 iteration에서 루트를 찾을 때 O(N), 각 inorder와 preorder 리스트를 좌/우로 만들 때 2*O(N)이 걸린다. 전체 Time complexity는 O(N)이다. 최적화를 통해 통과되기는 했지만, 좋은 방법은 아니다.
class Solution:
def buildTree(self, preorder: List[int], inorder: List[int]) -> TreeNode:
def build_subtree(pre_list, in_list):
if not pre_list:
return None
root_val = pre_list[0]
root_index = in_list.index(root_val)
left_in_list = in_list[:root_index]
right_in_list = in_list[root_index + 1 :]
left_pre_list = pre_list[1 : len(left_in_list) + 1]
right_pre_list = pre_list[len(left_in_list) + 1 :]
return TreeNode(
root_val,
build_subtree(left_pre_list, left_in_list),
build_subtree(right_pre_list, right_in_list),
)
return build_subtree(preorder, inorder)
좀더 최적화된 재귀 풀이는 Solution 탭에 있다.
class Solution:
def buildTree(self, preorder: List[int], inorder: List[int]) -> TreeNode:
def array_to_tree(left, right):
nonlocal preorder_index
# if there are no elements to construct the tree
if left > right: return None
# select the preorder_index element as the root and increment it
root_value = preorder[preorder_index]
root = TreeNode(root_value)
preorder_index += 1
# build left and right subtree
# excluding inorder_index_map[root_value] element because it's the root
root.left = array_to_tree(left, inorder_index_map[root_value] - 1)
root.right = array_to_tree(inorder_index_map[root_value] + 1, right)
return root
preorder_index = 0
# build a hashmap to store value -> its index relations
inorder_index_map = {}
for index, value in enumerate(inorder):
inorder_index_map[value] = index
return array_to_tree(0, len(preorder) - 1)
