Problem
Given a binary tree and a sum, determine if the tree has a root-to-leaf path such that adding up all the values along the path equals the given sum.
Note: A leaf is a node with no children.
Example:
Given the below binary tree and sum = 22
,
5
/ \
4 8
/ / \
11 13 4
/ \ \
7 2 1
return true, as there exist a root-to-leaf path 5->4->11->2
which sum is 22.
Solution
/**
* Definition for a binary tree node.
* function TreeNode(val) {
* this.val = val;
* this.left = this.right = null;
* }
*/
/**
* @param {TreeNode} root
* @param {number} sum
* @return {boolean}
*/
var hasPathSum = function(root, sum) {
if (!root) return false;
if (root.val === sum && !root.left && !root.right) return true;
return hasPathSum(root.left, sum - root.val) || hasPathSum(root.right, sum - root.val)
};
Explain:
nope.
Complexity:
- Time complexity : O(n).
- Space complexity : O(1).
