思路

binary search tree 是什么先搞清楚

由于是有序链表,所以可以采用递归的思路,自顶向下建树。

1. 每次将链表的中间节点提出来;链表中间节点之前的部分作为左子树继续递归;链表中间节点之后的部分作为右子树继续递归。

2. 停止递归调用的条件是传递过去的head为空(某叶子节点为空)或者只有一个ListNode(到某叶子节点了)。

找链表中间节点的时候利用快慢指针的技巧:注意,因为前面的special case已经将传进来为空链表和长度为1的链表都处理了,所以快慢指针的时候需要判断一下从最短长度为2的链表的处理逻辑。之前的代码在while循环中只判断了fast.next.next is not None就忽略了链表长度为2的case,因此补上了一个fast.next is not None的case,修改过一次就AC了。

网上还有一种思路,只需要走一次链表就可以完成转换,利用的是自底向上建树。下面这个日志中有说明,留着以后去看看。
