235. Lowest Common Ancestor of a Binary Search Tree (작성중)

BST의 특성을 이용한 문제

1. Recursive

# Definition for a binary tree node.
# class TreeNode:
#     def __init__(self, x):
#         self.val = x
#         self.left = None
#         self.right = None

class Solution:
    def lowestCommonAncestor(self, root: 'TreeNode', p: 'TreeNode', q: 'TreeNode') -> 'TreeNode':
        
        if p.val < root.val and q.val < root.val:
            return self.lowestCommonAncestor(root.left, p, q)
        elif p.val > root.val and q.val > root.val:
            return self.lowestCommonAncestor(root.right, p, q)
        else:
            return root
        

2. Iterative

class Solution:
    def lowestCommonAncestor(self, root: 'TreeNode', p: 'TreeNode', q: 'TreeNode') -> 'TreeNode':
        node = root
        
        while node:
            if p.val < node.val and q.val < node.val:
                node = node.left
            elif p.val > node.val and q.val > node.val:
                node = node.right
            else:
                return node
        return root
