一、题目

在这里插入图片描述

二、解法

思路分析：本题和这道题类似【算法与数据结构】236、LeetCode二叉树的最近公共祖先，相同的算法也能解这道题，但是没有充分利用到二叉搜索树的性质，二叉搜索树的性质为中间节点的键值大于所有左子树节点的键值，大于所有右子树的键值。因此要找到两个节点的最近祖先节点，只需要确定节点位于[p,q]（或者是[q,p]大小未知，左闭右闭的区间）区间内。那么当节点键值比两个节点的键值都小时，说明公共最先节点在右子树内，遍历右子树即可，反之亦然，最终剩下的就是最近公共祖先节点。
程序如下：

class Solution {
public:
    // 后序遍历: 左右中
    // 1、输入参数
    TreeNode* lowestCommonAncestor(TreeNode* root, TreeNode* p, TreeNode* q) {
        // 2、终止条件
        if (root == NULL) return root;    // 如果节点相等或者是空节点返回

        // 3、单层递归逻辑
        if ((root->val > q->val && root->val > p->val)) {
            TreeNode* left = lowestCommonAncestor(root->left, p, q);    // 左
            if (left != NULL) return left;
        }
        if ((root->val < q->val && root->val < p->val)) {
            TreeNode* right = lowestCommonAncestor(root->right, p, q);    // 右
            if (right != NULL) return right;
        }   
        return root;
    }
};

    TreeNode(int x, TreeNode* left, TreeNode* right) : val(x), left(left), right(right) {}
};

public:
    // 后序遍历: 左右中
    // 1、输入参数

        // 2、终止条件
        if (root == NULL) return root;    // 如果节点相等或者是空节点返回

        // 3、单层递归逻辑
        if ((root->val > q->val && root->val > p->val)) {
            TreeNode* left = lowestCommonAncestor(root->left, p, q);    // 左
            if (left != NULL) return left;
        }

            if (right != NULL) return right;
        }   
        return root;
    }
