Problem: Verify Preorder Serialization of a Binary Tree

med
30 min
Try to solve the Verify Preorder Serialization of a Binary Tree problem.

Statement

One way to serialize a binary tree is to use preorder traversal. In this traversal, a non-null node’s value is recorded, while a null node is represented by a sentinel value such as '#'.

Given a string preorder of comma-separated values, determine whether it represents a valid preorder traversal serialization of a binary tree. Return true if it is valid, or false otherwise.

Note: It is guaranteed that each comma-separated value in the string will be either an integer or the character '#' representing a null pointer. You must not reconstruct the actual binary tree.

Constraints:

  • 1≤1 \leq preorder.length ≤104\leq 10^4

  • preorder consists of integers in the range [0,100][0, 100] and '#' separated by commas ','.
