Solution: Populating Next Right Pointers in Each Node

Explore a step-by-step solution to populate each node's next right pointer in a perfect binary tree. Understand how breadth-first search can connect nodes at the same level efficiently without additional space. This lesson guides you through both naive and optimized approaches, teaching you to implement level-by-level connections with O(n) time and O(1) space complexity.

We'll cover the following...

Solution
- Naive approach
- Optimized approach using Tree Breadth-first Search

Statement

Given a perfect binary treeA binary tree in which all the levels are completely filled with nodes, and all leaf nodes (nodes with no children) are at the same level., where each node contains an additional pointer called next. This pointer is initially set to NULL for all nodes. Your task is to connect all nodes of the same hierarchical level by setting the next pointer to its immediate right node.

The next pointer of the rightmost node at each level is set to NULL.

Constraints:

The number of nodes in the tree is in the range
