SDE Sheet - Serialize and Deserialize a Binary Tree

  Share   Like
Description
Discussion

This video is part of the Binary Tree section under GFG SDE Sheet.

Serialization is to store a tree in an array so that it can be later restored and deserialization is reading tree back from the array. Complete the functions

  • serialize() : stores the tree into an array a and returns the array.
  • deSerialize() : deserializes the array to the tree and returns the root of the tree.

Note: Multiple nodes can have the same data and the node values are always positive integers. Your code will be correct if the tree returned by deSerialize(serialize(input_tree)) is same as the input tree. Driver code will print the in-order traversal of the tree returned by deSerialize(serialize(input_tree)).

Example 1:

Input:       1    /   \   2     3 Output: 
2 1 3
