Solution: Find kth Maximum Value in Binary Search Tree

Explore how to find the kth maximum value in a binary search tree by using a recursive inorder traversal starting from the right subtree. Learn to decrement k during traversal and return the correct node when k reaches zero. Understand the time complexity of O(n) and space complexity involved in this method.

We'll cover the following...

Statement

Given the root node of a binary search tree and an integer value k, return the kthk^{th} maximum value in the tree.

Constraints:

  • The number of nodes in the tree is n.

  • 11 \leq k \leq n ...
