Given a Binary Search Tree (BST) with the root noderoot
, return the minimum difference between the values of any two different nodes in the tree.
Example :
Input:
root = [4,2,6,1,3,null,null]
Output:
1
Explanation:
Note that root is a TreeNode object, not an array.
The given tree [4,2,6,1,3,null,null] is represented by the following diagram:
4
/ \
2 6
/ \
1 3
while the minimum difference in this tree is 1, it occurs between node 1 and node 2, also between node 3 and node 2.
Note:
100
