Solution: Populating Next Right Pointers in Each Node

Explore how to populate next right pointers in each node of a perfect binary tree by applying breadth-first search. Understand both naive and optimized approaches to link nodes on the same level, analyze their time and space complexities, and implement an efficient solution that uses constant extra space.

We'll cover the following...

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
