### Example 1:
|
||||
- Input: `root = [3,5,1,6,2,0,8,null,null,7,4], p = 5, q = 1`
|
||||
- Output: `3`
|
||||
- Explanation: The LCA of nodes `5` and `1` is `3`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Example 2:
|
||||
- Input: `root = [3,5,1,6,2,0,8,null,null,7,4], p = 5, q = 4`
|
||||
- Output: `5`
|
||||
- Explanation: The LCA of nodes `5` and `4` is `5`, since a node can be a descendant of itself according to the LCA definition.
|
||||
|
||||
### Example 3:
|
||||
- Input: `root = [1,2], p = 1, q = 2`
|
||||
- Output: `1`
|
||||
|
||||
### Constraints:
|
||||
|
||||
- The number of nodes in the tree is in the range [2, 10^5].
|
||||
- `-10^9 <= Node.val <= 10^9`
|
||||
- All Node.val are unique.
|
||||
- `p != q`
|
||||
- p and q will exist in the tree.
|
||||
|
||||
## Solution
|
||||
|
||||
```py
|
||||
# Definition for a binary tree node.
|
||||
# class TreeNode:
|
||||
# def __init__(self, x):
|
||||
# self.val = x
|
||||
# self.left = None
|
||||
# self.right = None
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
class Solution:
|
||||
def lowestCommonAncestor(
|
||||
self, root: "TreeNode", p: "TreeNode", q: "TreeNode"
|
||||
) -> "TreeNode":
|
||||
|
||||
if not root:
|
||||
return None
|
||||
|
||||
if root == p or root == q:
|
||||
return root
|
||||
|
||||
l = self.lowestCommonAncestor(root.left, p, q)
|
||||
r = self.lowestCommonAncestor(root.right, p, q)
|
||||
|
||||
if l and r:
|
||||
return root
|
||||
else:
|
||||
return l or r
|
||||
```
