Given an array where elements are sorted in ascending order, convert it to a height balanced BST.
For this problem, a height-balanced binary tree is defined as a binary tree in which the depth of the two subtrees of every node never differ by more than 1.
Example:
Given the sorted array: [-10,-3,0,5,9], One possible answer is: [0,-3,9,-10,null,5], which represents the following height balanced BST:
0 / \ -3 9 / / -10 5
/**
* Definition for a binary tree node.
* public class TreeNode {
* int val;
* TreeNode left;
* TreeNode right;
* TreeNode(int x) { val = x; }
* }
*/
class Solution {
private TreeNode buildTree(int[] nums, int start, int end) {
if(start > end) return null;
int mid = (start + end) / 2;
TreeNode root = new TreeNode(nums[mid]);
root.left = buildTree(nums, start, mid - 1);
root.right = buildTree(nums, mid + 1, end);
return root;
}
public TreeNode sortedArrayToBST(int[] nums) {
if(nums == null) return null;
return buildTree(nums, 0, nums.length - 1);
}
