Given the root
of a Binary Search Tree and a target number k
, return true
if there exist two elements in the BST such that their sum is equal to the given target.
Example 1:
Input: root = [5,3,6,2,4,null,7], k = 9
Output: true
Example 2:
Input: root = [5,3,6,2,4,null,7], k = 28
Output: false
Example 3:
Input: root = [2,1,3], k = 4
Output: true
Example 4:
Input: root = [2,1,3], k = 1
Output: false
Example 5:
Input: root = [2,1,3], k = 3
Output: true
Constraints:
- The number of nodes in the tree is in the range
[1, 104]
. -104 <= Node.val <= 104
root
is guaranteed to be a valid binary search tree.-105 <= k <= 105
[Java]
- same strategy like “Two Sum”, create a hashset to store the value that seen before, and check if the set contains “target — root.val”
- check root’s left and right child, and scan through the whole BST
