Description#
Given a binary tree, determine if it is height-balanced.
Example 1:
Input: root = [3,9,20,null,null,15,7]
Output: true
Example 2:
Input: root = [1,2,2,3,3,null,null,4,4]
Output: false
Example 3:
Input: root = []
Output: true
Constraints:
- The number of nodes in the tree is in the range
[0, 5000]. -104 <= Node.val <= 104
Solutions#
Solution 1: Bottom-Up Recursion#
We define a function $height(root)$ to calculate the height of a binary tree, with the following logic:
- If the binary tree $root$ is null, return $0$.
- Otherwise, recursively calculate the heights of the left and right subtrees, denoted as $l$ and $r$ respectively. If either $l$ or $r$ is $-1$, or the absolute difference between $l$ and $r$ is greater than $1$, then return $-1$. Otherwise, return $max(l, r) + 1$.
Therefore, if the function $height(root)$ returns $-1$, it means the binary tree $root$ is not balanced. Otherwise, it is balanced.
The time complexity is $O(n)$, and the space complexity is $O(n)$. Here, $n$ is the number of nodes in the binary tree.
