Solution: Inorder Successor in BST

Explore how to identify the inorder successor of a given node in a binary search tree by applying a depth-first search approach. Understand the traversal logic using BST properties to efficiently locate the successor or return null if none exists.

Statement

You are given the root node of a binary search tree and a specific node p. Your task is to return the inorder successor of this p node. If there is no inorder successor of the given node, return NULL.

Note: The inorder successor of p is the node with the smallest value greater than p.data in the binary search tree.

Constraints:

  • The tree contains nodes in the range ...
