一、线索二叉树简介
二叉树本身是一种非线性结构，然而当你对二叉树进行遍历时，你会发现遍历结果是一个线性序列。这个序列中的节点存在前驱后继关系。因此，如何将这种前驱后继信息赋予给原本的二叉树呢？这就是二叉树的线索化过程。所以可以通过丰富原有的二叉树构建一棵可以知道结点的前驱后继的新的二叉树，我们叫它线索二叉树。
二、构建线索二叉树
2.1 定义线索二叉树节点
public class ThreadNode<E> {
public E data;
public ThreadNode<E> lnode;
public ThreadNode<E> rnode;
enum tag {CHILD, THREAD};
public tag ltag;
public tag rtag;
public ThreadNode(E data){
this.data = data;
ltag = tag.CHILD;
rtag = tag.CHILD;
}
public ThreadNode(){}
}
为了充分利用二叉树的空指针域，我们可以将结点线索依附在这些空指针中。这样一来，在我们访问根节点的左右节点时，我们必须要区分什么时候是线索，什么时候子女指针。因此为每个节点设置两个标志位。
2.2 建立线索二叉树
在遍历二叉树的时候顺便进行线索化。线索化就是每遇到一个节点存在空指针域就要立即填上它的前驱（左指针空）或者后继（右指针空）。
/**
* 利用中序非递归遍历对二叉树进行线索化
* @author sheepcore
*/
public void createInThread(){
if(root == null)
return;
ThreadNode<E> pre = null;
ThreadNode<E> cur = root;
MyStack<ThreadNode<E>> stack = new MyStack<>();
while (cur != null || !stack.isEmpty()) {
while (cur != null){
stack.push(cur);
cur = cur.lnode;
}
if(!stack.isEmpty()){
cur = stack.pop();
if(cur.lnode == null) { //当前节点的前驱作为线索
cur.lnode = pre;
cur.ltag = ThreadNode.tag.THREAD;
}
if(pre != null && pre.rnode == null){
pre.rnode = cur; //当前节点的前驱的后继节点是当前节点
pre.rtag = ThreadNode.tag.THREAD;
}
pre = cur;
if(cur.rnode != null){
cur = cur.rnode;
}
else
cur = null; } //if
} //while
}
2.3 遍历线索二叉树
以中序线索二叉树的遍历为例。getFirst(root) 和 getNext(root) 分别是获取中序遍历中以 root 为根的第一个访问的节点和 root 的后继节点。这两个辅助函数在最后面的完整代码有实现。
public void inOrder(ThreadNode<E> root){
ThreadNode<E> cur;
for (cur = getFirst(root); cur != null; cur = getNext(cur)) {
visit(cur);
}
}
