129. Sum Root to Leaf Numbers

Description

You are given the root of a binary tree containing digits from 0 to 9 only.

Each root-to-leaf path in the tree represents a number.

  • For example, the root-to-leaf path 1 -> 2 -> 3 represents the number 123.

Return the total sum of all root-to-leaf numbers. Test cases are generated so that the answer will fit in a 32-bit integer.

A leaf node is a node with no children.

 

Example 1:

Input: root = [1,2,3]
Output: 25
Explanation:
The root-to-leaf path 1->2 represents the number 12.
The root-to-leaf path 1->3 represents the number 13.
Therefore, sum = 12 + 13 = 25.

Example 2:

Input: root = [4,9,0,5,1]
Output: 1026
Explanation:
The root-to-leaf path 4->9->5 represents the number 495.
The root-to-leaf path 4->9->1 represents the number 491.
The root-to-leaf path 4->0 represents the number 40.
Therefore, sum = 495 + 491 + 40 = 1026.

 

Constraints:

  • The number of nodes in the tree is in the range [1, 1000].
  • 0 <= Node.val <= 9
  • The depth of the tree will not exceed 10.

Solutions

Solution 1: DFS

We can design a function $dfs(root, s)$, which represents the sum of all path numbers from the current node $root$ to the leaf nodes, given that the current path number is $s$. The answer is $dfs(root, 0)$.

The calculation of the function $dfs(root, s)$ is as follows:

  • If the current node $root$ is null, return $0$.
  • Otherwise, add the value of the current node to $s$, i.e., $s = s \times 10 + root.val$.
  • If the current node is a leaf node, return $s$.
  • Otherwise, return $dfs(root.left, s) + dfs(root.right, s)$.

The time complexity is $O(n)$, and the space complexity is $O(\log n)$. Here, $n$ is the number of nodes in the binary tree.
