113. Path Sum II

Difficulty Topics

Description

Given the root of a binary tree and an integer targetSum, return all root-to-leaf paths where the sum of the node values in the path equals targetSum. Each path should be returned as a list of the node values, not node references.

A root-to-leaf path is a path starting from the root and ending at any leaf node. A leaf is a node with no children.

 

Example 1:

Input: root = [5,4,8,11,null,13,4,7,2,null,null,5,1], targetSum = 22
Output: [[5,4,11,2],[5,8,4,5]]
Explanation: There are two paths whose sum equals targetSum:
5 + 4 + 11 + 2 = 22
5 + 8 + 4 + 5 = 22

Example 2:

Input: root = [1,2,3], targetSum = 5
Output: []

Example 3:

Input: root = [1,2], targetSum = 0
Output: []

 

Constraints:

  • The number of nodes in the tree is in the range [0, 5000].
  • -1000 <= Node.val <= 1000
  • -1000 <= targetSum <= 1000

Solution

path-sum-ii.py
# Definition for a binary tree node.
# class TreeNode:
#     def __init__(self, val=0, left=None, right=None):
#         self.val = val
#         self.left = left
#         self.right = right
class Solution:
    def pathSum(self, root: Optional[TreeNode], targetSum: int) -> List[List[int]]:
        res = []

        def go(node, curr, path):
            if not node: return

            if not node.left and not node.right and curr + node.val == targetSum:
                res.append(path + [node.val])
                return

            go(node.left, curr + node.val, path + [node.val])
            go(node.right, curr + node.val, path + [node.val])

        go(root, 0, [])
        return res
