Google: 90% of our engineers use the software you wrote (Homebrew), but you can’t invert a binary tree on a whiteboard so f*** off.

Thought Process

Simple question on understanding about recursion. It could be solved using pre-order and post-order traversal style recursion. It can also be solved iteratively using a queue. Please refer to Leetcode official solution. It‘s very similar to "Binary Tree ZigZag Level Order Traversal". Remember a full binary tree max leaf is (N+1)/2 or ceiling of N/2

, that‘s the O(N) space complexity using a queue.

If you are like Max Howell, you can show off but I would still recommend to stay humble if you really want the job. Brillient jerks are rare (IMHO Linus Torvalds is one) but very productive, but not all companies would accept those culture (Netflix does but not others). Be strong and humble.

Solutions

 1 public TreeNode invertTree(TreeNode root) {
 2     return this.helper(root);
 3 }
 4 
 5 // post order
 6 private TreeNode helper(TreeNode root) {
 7     if (root == null) {
 8         return root;
 9     }
10 
11     TreeNode l = helper(root.left);
12     TreeNode r = helper(root.right);
13 
14     root.left = r;
15     root.right = l;
16 
17     return root;
18 }
19 
20 // Preorder
21 private TreeNode invertHelper(TreeNode root) {
22     if (root == null) {
23         return null;
24     }
25 
26     TreeNode temp = root.left;
27     root.left = root.right;
28     root.right = temp;
29 
30     this.invertHelper(root.left);
31     this.invertHelper(root.right);
32 
33     return root;
34 } 

Recursion (pre-order and post-order)

Time Complexity: O(N), where N is the total number of tree nodes

Space Complexity: O(1) Or O(lgN) if you count the recursion function stack
