Tree

Construct Binary Tree from Preorder and Inorder

**Problem Statement:** Given the required input arguments, write an efficient algorithm to solve the **Construct Binary Tree from Preorder and Inorder** problem. Implement the required logic as specified by standard definitions for this classic algorithmic challenge. **Hint / Expected Approach:** Hash inorder positions + recursive split **Edge Cases to Consider:** - (1) Single node - (2) Skewed left tree - (3) All values same (invalid)

Examples

Example 1
Input: [3,9,20,15,7], [9,3,15,20,7]
Output: [3,9,20,null,null,15,7]
Explanation: Classic
Example 2
Input: [-1], [-1]
Output: [-1]
Explanation: Single node
Example 3
Input: [1,2,3], [2,1,3]
Output: [1,2,3]
Explanation: Simple 3-node

Constraints

  • ▪The number of nodes in the tree is in the range [0, 2000]
  • ▪-1000 <= Node.val <= 1000
  • ▪Ensure depth-first or breadth-first traversals are memory-efficient

Watch Out For Edge Cases

  • ▪Single node
  • ▪Skewed left tree
  • ▪All values same (invalid)
