问题
This is one of the interview questions I recently came across.
Given the root address of a complete or almost complete binary tree, we have to write a function to convert the tree to a max-heap.
There are no arrays involved here. The tree is already constructed.
For e.g.,
1
/ \
2 5
/ \ / \
3 4 6 7
can have any of the possible max heaps as the output--
7
/ \
3 6
/ \ / \
2 1 4 5
or
7
/ \
4 6
/ \ / \
2 3 1 5
etc...
I wrote a solution but using a combination of pre and post order traversals but that I guess runs in O(n^2). My code gives the following output.
7
/ \
3 6
/ \ / \
1 2 4 5
I was looking for a better solution. Can somebody please help?
Edit :
My Code
void preorder(struct node* root)
{
if(root==NULL)return;
max_heapify(root,NULL);
preorder(root->left);
preorder(root->right);
}
void max_heapify(struct node* root,struct node* prev)
{
if(root==NULL)
return ;
max_heapify(root->left,root);
max_heapify(root->right,root);
if(prev!=NULL && root->data > prev->data)
{
swapper(root,prev);
}
}
void swapper(struct node* node1, struct node* node2)
{
int temp= node1->data;
node1->data = node2->data;
node2->data = temp;
}

I think this can be done in O(NlogN) time by the following procedure. http://www.cs.rit.edu/~rpj/courses/bic2/studios/studio1/studio121.html
Assume there is an element in the tree whose both left and right sub-trees are heaps.
E
H1 H2
This Tree formed by E, H1 and H2 can be heapified in logN time by making the element E swim down to its correct position.
Hence, we start building the heap bottom up. Goto the left-most sub-tree and convert it to a heap by trivial comparison. Do this for it's sibling as well. Then go up and convert it to heap.
Like-wise do this for every element.
EDIT: As mentioned in the comments, the complexity is actually O(N).

I don't know the way if you can't access the parent node easily or no array representation, if you could traverse the tree to record it ref in a array(O(N)), then it become simple.
1
/ \
2 5
/ \ / \
3 4 6 7
from the last parent node to the root node(in your case 5,2,1:
for each node make it compare to their children:
if children is larger than parent, swap parent and children:
if swapped: then check the new children's childrens utill no swap
1
/ \
2 7
/ \ / \
3 4 6 5 check [7] 5<-->7
1
/ \
4 7
/ \ / \
3 2 6 5 check [2] 4<-->2
7
/ \
4 1
/ \ / \
3 2 6 5 check [1] 7<-->1
7
/ \
4 6
/ \ / \
3 2 1 5 check [1] 6<-->1
That is it! The complexity should be O(N*LogN).

I think you can get one work simply by revising postOrderTraverse. This is O(n)
void Heapify_Min(TreeNode* node)
{
if(! = node) return;
Heapify_Min(node->left);
Heapify_Min(node->right);
TreeNode* largest = node;
if(node->left && node->left->val > node->val)
largest = node->left;
if(node->right && node->right->val > node->val)
largest = node->right;
if(largest != node)
{
swap(node, largest)
}
}
void swap(TreeNode* n1, TreeNode* n2)
{
TreeNode* temp = n1->left;
n1->left = n2->left;
n2->left =temp;
temp = n1->right;
n1->right = n2->right;
n2->right = temp;
}
}
