2415. Reverse Odd Levels of Binary Tree

Problem Link

Description

---

Given the root of a perfect binary tree, reverse the node values at each odd level of the tree.

• For example, suppose the node values at level 3 are [2,1,3,4,7,11,29,18], then it should become [18,29,11,7,4,3,1,2].

Return the root of the reversed tree.

A binary tree is perfect if all parent nodes have two children and all leaves are on the same level.

The level of a node is the number of edges along the path between it and the root node.

 

Example 1:

Input: root = [2,3,5,8,13,21,34]
Output: [2,5,3,8,13,21,34]
Explanation: 
The tree has only one odd level.
The nodes at level 1 are 3, 5 respectively, which are reversed and become 5, 3.

Example 2:

Input: root = [7,13,11]
Output: [7,11,13]
Explanation: 
The nodes at level 1 are 13, 11, which are reversed and become 11, 13.

Example 3:

Input: root = [0,1,2,0,0,0,0,1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2]
Output: [0,2,1,0,0,0,0,2,2,2,2,1,1,1,1]
Explanation: 
The odd levels have non-zero values.
The nodes at level 1 were 1, 2, and are 2, 1 after the reversal.
The nodes at level 3 were 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, and are 2, 2, 2, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1 after the reversal.

 

Constraints:

• The number of nodes in the tree is in the range [1, 214].
• 0 <= Node.val <= 105
• root is a perfect binary tree.

# Definition for a binary tree node.
# class TreeNode:
#     def __init__(self, val=0, left=None, right=None):
#         self.val = val
#         self.left = left
#         self.right = right
class Solution:
    def reverseOddLevels(self, root: Optional[TreeNode]) -> Optional[TreeNode]:
 
        def go(left, right, isOdd):
            if not left and not right:
                return
            
            if isOdd:
                left.val, right.val = right.val, left.val
            
            go(left.left, right.right, not isOdd)
            go(left.right, right.left, not isOdd)
 
        go(root.left, root.right, True)
 
        return root
