230. Kth Smallest Element in a BST
Medium
LeetCode
Tree, Depth-First Search, Binary Search Tree, Binary Tree
Problem
Given a binary search tree, write a function kthSmallest to find the kth smallest element in it.
Example 1:
Input: root = [3,1,4,null,2], k = 1
3
/ \
1 4
\
2
Output: 1
Example 2:
Input: root = [5,3,6,2,4,null,null,1], k = 3
5
/ \
3 6
/ \
2 4
/
1
Output: 3
Follow up: What if the BST is modified (insert/delete operations) often and you need to find the kth smallest frequently? How would you optimize the kthSmallest routine?
