314. Binary Tree Vertical Order Traversal
Given a binary tree, return the vertical order traversal of its nodes' values. (ie, from top to bottom, column by column).
If two nodes are in the same row and column, the order should be from left to right.
Examples 1:
Input: [3,9,20,null,null,15,7]
3
/\
/ \
9 20
/\
/ \
15 7
Output:
[
[9],
[3,15],
[20],
[7]
]
Examples 2:
Input: [3,9,8,4,0,1,7]
3
/\
/ \
9 8
/\ /\
/ \/ \
4 01 7
Output:
[
[4],
[9],
[3,0,1],
[8],
[7]
]
Examples 3:
Input: [3,9,8,4,0,1,7,null,null,null,2,5] (0's right child is 2 and 1's left child is 5)
3
/\
/ \
9 8
/\ /\
/ \/ \
4 01 7
/\
/ \
5 2
Output:
[
[4],
[9,5],
[3,0,1],
[8,2],
[7]
]
---Intuition
Order L to R must be preserved for each level = > Level Order BFS
Ans should be sorted in order of columns => Save Map< Col, Integer list> Save min, max col at each level to construct the output from map
