Given the root of a binary tree, return the preorder traversal of its nodes' values.

Example 1:

Input: root = [1,null,2,3]
Output: [1,2,3]

Example 2:

Input: root = []
Output: []

Example 3:

Input: root = [1]
Output: [1]

Example 4:

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

Example 5:

Input: root = [1,null,2]
Output: [1,2]

Constraints:

  • The number of nodes in the tree is in the range [0, 100].
  • -100 <= Node.val <= 100

Solution

Given the root of a binary tree, return the preorder traversal of its nodes' values.

Example 1:

Input: root = [1,null,2,3]
Output: [1,2,3]

Example 2:

Input: root = []
Output: []

Example 3:

Input: root = [1]
Output: [1]

Example 4:

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

Example 5:

Input: root = [1,null,2]
Output: [1,2]

Constraints:

  • The number of nodes in the tree is in the range [0, 100].
  • -100 <= Node.val <= 100

Solution

class Solution {

public List<Integer> preOrder(TreeNode root, List<Integer> sol) {

if(root == null)
return sol;

sol.add(root.val);
if(root.left != null)
sol = preOrder(root.left, sol);
if(root.right != null)
sol = preOrder(root.right, sol);

return sol;
}

public List<Integer> preorderTraversal(TreeNode root) {
List<Integer> sol = new ArrayList<>();
sol = preOrder(root, sol);
return sol;
}
}
