[Google] LeetCode 2096 Step-By-Step Directions From a Binary Tree Node to Another

作者：互联网

You are given the root of a binary tree with n nodes. Each node is uniquely assigned a value from 1 to n. You are also given an integer startValue representing the value of the start node s, and a different integer destValue representing the value of the destination node t.

Find the shortest path starting from node s and ending at node t. Generate step-by-step directions of such path as a string consisting of only the uppercase letters 'L', 'R', and 'U'. Each letter indicates a specific direction:

Return the step-by-step directions of the shortest path from node s to node t.

Solution

和 Oracle 有道题很像，那道题是求出最短路径的长度，这里让我们输出路径。

第一步依然是求出 \(LCA\). 很显然从 \(s\) 出发到 \(LCA\) 的路径必然是 \(U...\)，从 \(LCA\) 到 \(t\) 则是正常的 \(dfs\) 顺序即可。这里用 \(dfs\) 函数来判断当前的 \(v\) 是否存在 \(rt\) 为根的树里面。我们先将 \(L\) 加入到路径当中，如果不在该左子树里面，则 \(pop\_back\) 即可。
