144. Binary Tree Preorder Traversal

Given the root of a binary tree, return the preorder traversal of its nodes' values.

Example 1:

Input: root = [1,null,2,3]
Output: [1,2,3]

Example 2:

Input: root = []
Output: []

Example 3:

Input: root = [1]
Output: [1]

Constraints:

• The number of nodes in the tree is in the range [0, 100].
• -100 <= Node.val <= 100

Follow up: Recursive solution is trivial, could you do it iteratively?

recursion

/**
 * Definition for a binary tree node.
 * struct TreeNode {
 *     int val;
 *     TreeNode *left;
 *     TreeNode *right;
 *     TreeNode() : val(0), left(nullptr), right(nullptr) {}
 *     TreeNode(int x) : val(x), left(nullptr), right(nullptr) {}
 *     TreeNode(int x, TreeNode *left, TreeNode *right) : val(x), left(left), right(right) {}
 * };

class Solution {
private:
    vector<int> res;
public:
    vector<int> preorderTraversal(TreeNode* root) {
        dfs(root);
        return res;
    }
    void dfs(TreeNode* root) {
        if(!root) return;
        res.push_back(root->val);
        dfs(root->left);
        dfs(root->right);
    }
};
