450. Delete Node in a BST
Description
Given a root node reference of a BST and a key, delete the node with the given key in the BST. Return the root node reference (possibly updated) of the BST.
Basically, the deletion can be divided into two stages:
- Search for a node to remove.
- If the node is found, delete the node.
Example 1:
Input: root = [5,3,6,2,4,null,7], key = 3 Output: [5,4,6,2,null,null,7] Explanation: Given key to delete is 3. So we find the node with value 3 and delete it. One valid answer is [5,4,6,2,null,null,7], shown in the above BST. Please notice that another valid answer is [5,2,6,null,4,null,7] and it's also accepted.
Example 2:
Input: root = [5,3,6,2,4,null,7], key = 0 Output: [5,3,6,2,4,null,7] Explanation: The tree does not contain a node with value = 0.
Example 3:
Input: root = [], key = 0 Output: []
Constraints:
- The number of nodes in the tree is in the range
[0, 104]. -105 <= Node.val <= 105- Each node has a unique value.
rootis a valid binary search tree.-105 <= key <= 105
Follow up: Could you solve it with time complexity O(height of tree)?
