Find mode in Binary Search Tree

Given a binary search tree (BST) with duplicates, find all the mode(s) (the most frequently occurred element) in the given BST.

Assume a BST is defined as follows:

  • The left subtree of a node contains only nodes with keys less than or equal to the node‘s key.
  • The right subtree of a node contains only nodes with keys greater than or equal to the node‘s key.
  • Both the left and right subtrees must also be binary search trees.

 

For example:
Given BST [1,null,2,2],

   1
         2
    /
   2

 

return [2].

Note: If a tree has more than one mode, you can return them in any order.

Follow up: Could you do that without using any extra space? (Assume that the implicit stack space incurred due to recursion does not count).

 

Solution: 题目要求O(1)的空间复杂度,所以我们需要先得到有多少个modes,再申请空间。所产生的stack space不计入空间复杂度,因此可用递归。
