Binary Tree Pruning

Given the root of a binary tree, return the same tree where every subtree (of the given tree) not containing a 1 has been removed.

A subtree of a node node is node plus every node that is a descendant of node.

Example 1:

Input: root = [1,null,0,0,1]
Output: [1,null,0,null,1]
Explanation:
Only the red nodes satisfy the property "every subtree not containing a 1".
The diagram on the right represents the answer.

Example 2:

Input: root = [1,0,1,0,0,0,1]
Output: [1,null,1,null,1]

Example 3:

Input: root = [1,1,0,1,1,0,1,0]
Output: [1,1,0,1,1,null,1]

Constraints:

• The number of nodes in the tree is in the range [1, 200].
• Node.val is either 0 or 1.

SOLUTION:

# Definition for a binary tree node. # class TreeNode: # def __init__(self, val=0, left=None, right=None): # self.val = val # self.left = left # self.right = right class Solution: def hasOne(self, root): if root: if root.val == 1: return True if self.hasOne(root.left) or self.hasOne(root.right): return True return False def pruneTree(self, root: Optional[TreeNode]) -> Optional[TreeNode]: if not self.hasOne(root): return None root.left = self.pruneTree(root.left) root.right = self.pruneTree(root.right) return root
