LeetCode OJ 331. Verify Preorder Serialization of a Binary Tree

One way to serialize a binary tree is to use pre-order traversal. When we encounter a non-null node, we record the node's value. If it is a null node, we record using a sentinel value such as #.

     _9_
    /   \
   3     2
  / \   / \
 4   1  #  6
/ \ / \   / \
# # # #   # #

For example, the above binary tree can be serialized to the string "9,3,4,#,#,1,#,#,2,#,6,#,#", where # represents a null node.

Given a string of comma separated values, verify whether it is a correct preorder traversal serialization of a binary tree. Find an algorithm without reconstructing the tree.

Each comma separated value in the string must be either an integer or a character '#' representing null pointer.

You may assume that the input format is always valid, for example it could never contain two consecutive commas such as "1,,3".

Example 1:
"9,3,4,#,#,1,#,#,2,#,6,#,#"
Return true

Example 2:
"1,#"
Return false

Example 3:
"9,#,#,1"
Return false

这题好坑啊,逗号也要读取。用到的方法是如果是先序遍历的结果的话遍历结束后的数组NULL节点数一定比非空节点恰好多1。而这里要注意的是非空节点的键值可能在字符串数组中是多位数,并且如果字符串最后以数结尾的话,要注意此时是没有逗号的,所以不能简单的以判断逗号作为一个多位数结束的标志。

bool isValidSerialization(char* preorder) {
    , ch = , i, j;
    ; preorder[i] != ; i = i + ){
        if('#' != preorder[i]){
            num++;
            ; j++);
            )
                break;
            i = j - ;
        }
        else{
            ch++;
        }
         == ch){
            break;
        }
    }
    ] == &&num +  == ch){
        return true;
    }
    else{
        return false;
    }
}
