Populating Next Right Pointers in Each Node

Populating Next Right Pointers in Each Node

问题：

each next pointer to point to its next right node. If there is no next right node, the next pointer should be set to

NULL

.

Initially, all next pointers are set to

NULL

.

Note:

You may only use constant extra space.

You may assume that it is a perfect binary tree (ie, all leaves are at the same level, and every parent has two children)

思路：

　　采用队列方法，poll队首的同时，加入两个其孩子

　　核心是记录每一个层次的大小，两层循环，时间复杂度为O(n)

我的代码：

public void connect(TreeLinkNode root) {
if (root == null) {
return;
}

TreeLinkNode leftEnd = root;
while (leftEnd != null && leftEnd.left != null) {
TreeLinkNode cur = leftEnd;
while (cur != null) {
cur.left.next = cur.right;
cur.right.next = cur.next == null ? null: cur.next.left;

cur = cur.next;
}

leftEnd = leftEnd.left;
}
}

学习之处：

自己的方法不足之处在于空间复杂度为O(n),而他人方法的空间复杂度为O(1)

他人方法的思路为使用2个循环，一个指针P1专门记录每一层的最左边节点，另一个指针P2扫描本层，把下一层的链接上
