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.
Note: Time complexity should be O(height of tree).

Example:

root = [5,3,6,2,4,null,7]
key = 3

    5
   /   3   6
 / \   2   4   7

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 following BST.

    5
   /   4   6
 /     2       7

Another valid answer is [5,2,6,null,4,null,7].

    5
   /   2   6
   \       4   7

recursively find the node that needs to be deleted

Once the node is found, have to handle the below 4 cases

  • node doesn‘t have left or right - return null
  • node only has left subtree- return the left subtree
  • node only has right subtree- return the right subtree
  • node has both left and right - find the minimum value in the right subtree, set that value to the currently found node, then recursively delete the minimum value in the right subtree

 4  *     int val;

10 public class Solution {
11     public TreeNode deleteNode(TreeNode root, int key) {
12         if (root == null) return null;
13         if (key < root.val) {
14             root.left = deleteNode(root.left, key);
15         }
16         else if (key > root.val) {
17             root.right = deleteNode(root.right, key);
18         }
19         else { //k == root.val
20             if (root.left == null) return root.right;
21             else if (root.right == null) return root.left;
22             else { // both root.left and root.right are not null
23                 TreeNode minRight = findMin(root.right);
24                 root.val = minRight.val;
25                 root.right = deleteNode(root.right, minRight.val);
26             }
27         }
28         return root;
29     }
30     
31     public TreeNode findMin(TreeNode cur) {
32         while (cur.left != null) {
33             cur = cur.left;
34         }
35         return cur;
36     }
