leetcode 236. 二叉树的最近公共祖先（java & python3）

java：

递归递归递归 

class Solution {
    public TreeNode lowestCommonAncestor(TreeNode root, TreeNode p, TreeNode q) {
        if (root == null || root == p || root == q){
            return root;
        }
        TreeNode left = lowestCommonAncestor(root.left, p, q);
        TreeNode right = lowestCommonAncestor(root.right, p, q);
        if (left == null) {
            return right;
        }
        if (right == null) {
            return left;
        }
        return root;
    }
}

python3:

class Solution:
    def lowestCommonAncestor(self, root: TreeNode, p: TreeNode, q: TreeNode) -> TreeNode:
        if root is None or p == root or q == root:
            return root
        left = self.lowestCommonAncestor(root.left, p, q)
        right = self.lowestCommonAncestor(root.right, p, q)
        if left is None:
            return right
        if right is None:
            return left
        return root
