Path Sum III

You are given a binary tree in which each node contains an integer value.

Find the number of paths that sum to a given value.

The path does not need to start or end at the root or a leaf, but it must go downwards (traveling only from parent nodes to child nodes).

The tree has no more than 1,000 nodes and the values are in the range -1,000,000 to 1,000,000.

Example:

root = [10,5,-3,3,2,null,11,3,-2,null,1], sum = 8

      10
     /  \
    5   -3
   / \    \
  3   2   11
 / \   \
3  -2   1

Return 3. The paths that sum to 8 are:

1.  5 -> 3
2.  5 -> 2 -> 1
3. -3 -> 11

Solution:

/**
 * Definition for a binary tree node.
 * public class TreeNode {
 *     int val;
 *     TreeNode left;
 *     TreeNode right;
 *     TreeNode(int x) { val = x; }
 * }
 */
public class Solution {
    public int pathSum(TreeNode root, int sum) {
        Map<Integer,Integer> map = new HashMap<>();
        map.put(0,1);
        return helper(root, 0, sum, map);
    }
    public int helper(TreeNode root, int pre, int tar, Map<Integer,Integer> map){
        if(root==null) return 0;
        pre += root.val;
        int ans = map.getOrDefault(pre-tar,0);
        map.put(pre, map.getOrDefault(pre,0)+1);
        ans += helper(root.left, pre, tar, map) + helper(root.right, pre, tar, map);
        map.put(pre, map.get(pre)-1);
        return ans;
    }
}
