[LeetCode]#2236. Root Equals Sum of Children
2 min readNov 4, 2022
Environment: Python 3.8
Key technique: tree node
You are given the root
of a binary tree that consists of exactly 3
nodes: the root, its left child, and its right child.
Return true
if the value of the root is equal to the sum of the values of its two children, or false
otherwise.
Example 1:
Input: root = [10,4,6]
Output: true
Explanation: The values of the root, its left child, and its right child are 10, 4, and 6, respectively.
10 is equal to 4 + 6, so we return true.
Example 2:
Input: root = [5,3,1]
Output: false
Explanation: The values of the root, its left child, and its right child are 5, 3, and 1, respectively.
5 is not equal to 3 + 1, so we return false.
Analysis:
- If root.val = root.left.val + root.right.val, return True
- Else, return False
Solution:
class Solution:
def checkTree(self, root):
if (root.val == root.left.val + root.right.val):
return True
else:
return False
