leetcode 563. Binary Tree Tilt

Given the root of a binary tree, return the sum of every tree node's tilt.

The tilt of a tree node is the absolute difference between the sum of all left subtree node values and all right subtree node values. If a node does not have a left child, then the sum of the left subtree node values is treated as 0. The rule is similar if there the node does not have a right child.

Example 1:

Input: root = [1,2,3]
Output: 1
Explanation: 
Tilt of node 2 : |0-0| = 0 (no children)
Tilt of node 3 : |0-0| = 0 (no children)
Tile of node 1 : |2-3| = 1 (left subtree is just left child, so sum is 2; right subtree is just right child, so sum is 3)
Sum of every tilt : 0 + 0 + 1 = 1

Example 2:

Input: root = [4,2,9,3,5,null,7]
Output: 15
Explanation: 
Tilt of node 3 : |0-0| = 0 (no children)
Tilt of node 5 : |0-0| = 0 (no children)
Tilt of node 7 : |0-0| = 0 (no children)
Tilt of node 2 : |3-5| = 2 (left subtree is just left child, so sum is 3; right subtree is just right child, so sum is 5)
Tilt of node 9 : |0-7| = 7 (no left child, so sum is 0; right subtree is just right child, so sum is 7)
Tilt of node 4 : |(3+5+2)-(9+7)| = |10-16| = 6 (left subtree values are 3, 5, and 2, which sums to 10; right subtree values are 9 and 7, which sums to 16)
Sum of every tilt : 0 + 0 + 0 + 2 + 7 + 6 = 15

Example 3:

Input: root = [21,7,14,1,1,2,2,3,3]
Output: 9

Constraints:

The number of nodes in the tree is in the range [0, 104].
-1000 <= Node.val <= 1000

题目难度：简单题

思路：我们需要返回所有node的tilt，想法就是遍历到某个node时，计算出其tilt，并把它累加到一个变量中，最后返回。计算某个node的tilt时，需要左子树的各个node值之和，以及右子树的各个node值之和，因此新建一个函数，返回值为树的node值之和。进一步理解见代码：

C++代码：

 1 /**
 2  * Definition for a binary tree node.
 3  * struct TreeNode {
 4  *     int val;
 5  *     TreeNode *left;
 6  *     TreeNode *right;
 7  *     TreeNode() : val(0), left(nullptr), right(nullptr) {}
 8  *     TreeNode(int x) : val(x), left(nullptr), right(nullptr) {}
 9  *     TreeNode(int x, TreeNode *left, TreeNode *right) : val(x), left(left), right(right) {}
10  * };
11  */
12 class Solution {
13 private:
14     int findTilt(TreeNode *root, int &sum) {
15         //root为传入树的根节点，sum表示以root为跟节点的所有节点tilt值之和
16         if (root == nullptr) { //如果root为空，返回值为0
17             return 0;
18         }
19         int left = findTilt(root->left, sum);
20         int right = findTilt(root->right, sum);
21         sum += abs(left - right);
22         return left + right + root->val;
23     }
24 public:
25     int findTilt(TreeNode* root) {
26         int sum = 0;
27         findTilt(root, sum);
28         return sum;
29     }
30 };
