Problem: Inorder Successor in BST

Medium
30 min
Explore how to find the inorder successor of a given node within a binary search tree. Understand the definition, constraints, and approach to return the smallest node value greater than a specific node. Practice implementing this common tree problem in coding interviews to solidify comprehension of tree traversal and BST properties.

Statement

You are given the root node of a binary search tree and a specific node p. Your task is to return the inorder successor of this p node. If there is no inorder successor of the given node, return NULL.

Note: The inorder successor of p is the node with the smallest value greater than p.data in the binary search tree.

Constraints:

  • The tree contains nodes in the range [1,500][1,500].

  • 104-10^4 \leqNode.data 104\leq 10^4

  • All Nodes will have unique values.

  • p should exist in the tree.
