110. Balanced Binary Tree

Description

Given a binary tree, determine if it is height-balanced.

For this problem, a height-balanced binary tree is defined as:

a binary tree in which the left and right subtrees of every node differ in height by no more than 1.

Constraints

Approach

Examples

Input: [3, 9, 20, null, null, 15, 7]

Output: true

Solutions

// Definition for a binary tree node.
public class TreeNode {
    int val;
    TreeNode left;
    TreeNode right;
    
    TreeNode() {}
    
    TreeNode(int val) { this.val = val; }
    
    TreeNode(int val, TreeNode left, TreeNode right) {
        this.val = val;
        this.left = left;
        this.right = right;
    }
}

    public boolean isBalanced(TreeNode root) {
        if(root == null) return true;
        
        if(Math.abs(height(root.left)-height(root.right)) > 1) {
            return false;
        }
        
        return isBalanced(root.left) && isBalanced(root.right);

        return 1 + Math.max(height(root.left), height(root.right));
