Problem
We run a preorder depth-first search (DFS) on the root
of a binary tree.
At each node in this traversal, we output D
dashes (where D
is the depth of this node), then we output the value of this node. If the depth of a node is D
, the depth of its immediate child is D + 1
. The depth of the root
node is 0
.
If a node has only one child, that child is guaranteed to be the left child.
Given the output traversal
of this traversal, recover the tree and return its root
.
Example 1:
Input: traversal = "1-2--3--4-5--6--7" Output: [1,2,5,3,4,6,7]
Example 2:
Input: traversal = "1-2--3---4-5--6---7" Output: [1,2,5,3,null,6,null,4,null,7]
Example 3:
Input: traversal = "1-401--349---90--88" Output: [1,401,null,349,88,90]
Constraints:
- The number of nodes in the original tree is in the range
[1, 1000]
. 1 <= Node.val <= 109
