Description¶
Given the root
of a Binary Search Tree and a target number k
, return true
if there exist two elements in the BST such that their sum is equal to the given target.
Example 1:

Input: root = [5,3,6,2,4,null,7], k = 9 Output: true
Example 2:

Input: root = [5,3,6,2,4,null,7], k = 28 Output: false
Constraints:
- The number of nodes in the tree is in the range
[1, 104]
. -104 <= Node.val <= 104
root
is guaranteed to be a valid binary search tree.-105 <= k <= 105
Solution(Python)¶
# 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 findTarget(self, root: Optional[TreeNode], k: int) -> bool:
def pushLeft(st, root):
while root:
st.append(root)
root = root.left
def pushRight(st, root):
while root:
st.append(root)
root = root.right
def nextLeft(st):
node = st.pop()
pushLeft(st, node.right)
return node.val
def nextRight(st):
node = st.pop()
pushRight(st, node.left)
return node.val
stLeft, stRight = [], []
pushLeft(stLeft, root)
pushRight(stRight, root)
left, right = nextLeft(stLeft), nextRight(stRight)
while left < right:
if left + right == k: return True
if left + right < k:
left = nextLeft(stLeft)
else:
right = nextRight(stRight)
return False
