Trivia:

This problem was inspired by this original tweet by Max Howell:

Google: 90% of our engineers use the software you wrote (Homebrew), but you can’t invert a binary tree on a whiteboard so fuck off.

 

2. My solution（0ms）

反转二叉树，题目中给出的TreeNode类实现：

/** * Definition for a binary tree node. * struct TreeNode { *     int val; *     TreeNode *left; *     TreeNode *right; *     TreeNode(int x) : val(x), left(NULL), right(NULL) {} * }; */

思路很简单，递归交换左右子树，关键在于，如何交换两个指针的地址。

如果要交换两个指针的值，需要使用二级指针。

　　void swapp(TreeNode** t1,TreeNode** t2)    {        TreeNode* tmp;        tmp=*t1;        *t1=*t2;        *t2=tmp;    }

My AC code： 

class Solution{public:    void swapp(TreeNode** t1,TreeNode** t2)    {        TreeNode* tmp;        tmp=*t1;        *t1=*t2;        *t2=tmp;    }    void DFS(TreeNode* root)    {        if(root!=NULL)        {            DFS(root->left);            DFS(root->right);            swapp(&(root->left),&(root->right));        }    }    TreeNode* invertTree(TreeNode* root)    {        DFS(root);        return root;    }};

3. Simple solution 

class Solution{public:    void DFS(TreeNode* root)    {        if(root!=NULL)        {            DFS(root->left);            DFS(root->right);            swap(root->left,root->right);        }    }    TreeNode* invertTree(TreeNode* root)    {        DFS(root);        return root;    }};
