Data Structures for Coding Interviews in Java

Challenge: Find Ancestors of a Given Node in a BST

Explore how to identify all ancestor nodes of a specified value in a binary search tree. Understand the traversal path from root to node and implement an effective Java solution for coding interview preparation.

We'll cover the following...

Statement

Given the root node of a binary search tree (BST) and an integer value k, find all the ancestors of the node whose value is k.

An ancestor of a node in a tree is any node on the path from the root to that node.

Constraints:

Let n be the number of nodes in a binary search tree.

  • 1≤n≤5001 \leq n \leq 500
