LeetCode 106. Construct Binary Tree from Inorder and Postorder Traversal （用中序和后序树遍历来建立二叉树）

Given inorder and postorder traversal of a tree, construct the binary tree.

Note:
You may assume that duplicates do not exist in the tree.

题目标签：Array, Tree

　　这到题目和105 几乎是一摸一样的，唯一的区别就是把pre-order 换成 post-order。因为post-order是最后一个数字是root，所以要从右向左的遍历。还需要把helper function 里的 right child 和 left child 顺序更换一下，并且要把相关的代入值也改一下。具体可以看code。

关键点：递归；利用post-order 和 in-order 的位置关系递归

 /**
  * Definition for a binary tree node.
  * public class TreeNode {
  *     int val;
  *     TreeNode left;
  *     TreeNode right;
  *     TreeNode(int x) { val = x; }
  * }
  */
 class Solution
 {
     public TreeNode buildTree(int[] inorder, int[] postorder)
     {
         Map<Integer, Integer> inMap = new HashMap<Integer, Integer>();

         // save inorder number as key, position as value into map
         for(int i=0; i<inorder.length; i++)
             inMap.put(inorder[i], i);

         TreeNode root = helper(postorder, postorder.length-1, 0, inorder.length - 1, inMap);

         return root;
     }

     public TreeNode helper(int[] postorder, int postEnd, int inStart, int inEnd,
             Map<Integer, Integer> inMap)
     {
         if(inStart > inEnd)
             return null;

         int rootVal = postorder[postEnd];
         TreeNode root = new TreeNode(rootVal);
         int inRoot = inMap.get(rootVal);  // position in inOrder

         /* inStart & inEnd: for left child, move inEnd to the left of root
          *                  for right child, move inStart to the right of root */
         root.right = helper(postorder, postEnd - 1, inRoot + 1, inEnd, inMap);
         /* postStart: for right left, go to inorder to check how many right children does root have,
          * add it into postorder to skip them to reach left child */
         root.left = helper(postorder, postEnd - (inEnd - inRoot) - 1, inStart, inRoot - 1, inMap);

         return root;
     }
 }
