Description#
Given the root
of a binary search tree, rearrange the tree in in-order so that the leftmost node in the tree is now the root of the tree, and every node has no left child and only one right child.
Example 1:
![](https://spcdn.pages.dev/leetcode/problems/0897.Increasing%20Order%20Search%20Tree/images/ex1.jpg)
Input: root = [5,3,6,2,4,null,8,1,null,null,null,7,9]
Output: [1,null,2,null,3,null,4,null,5,null,6,null,7,null,8,null,9]
Example 2:
![](https://spcdn.pages.dev/leetcode/problems/0897.Increasing%20Order%20Search%20Tree/images/ex2.jpg)
Input: root = [5,1,7]
Output: [1,null,5,null,7]
Constraints:
- The number of nodes in the given tree will be in the range
[1, 100]
. 0 <= Node.val <= 1000
Solutions#
Solution 1: DFS In-order Traversal#
We define a virtual node $dummy$, initially the right child of $dummy$ points to the root node $root$, and a pointer $prev$ points to $dummy$.
We perform an in-order traversal on the binary search tree. During the traversal, each time we visit a node, we point the right child of $prev$ to it, then set the left child of the current node to null, and assign the current node to $prev$ for the next traversal.
After the traversal ends, the original binary search tree is modified into a singly linked list with only right child nodes. We then return the right child of the virtual node $dummy$.
The time complexity is $O(n)$, and the space complexity is $O(n)$. Here, $n$ is the number of nodes in the binary search tree.
