653 Two Sum IV - Input is a BST: 05/17

Given a Binary Search Tree and a target number, return true if there exist two elements in the BST such that their sum is equal to the given target.

Example 1:

Input: 
    5
   / \
  3   6
 / \   \
2   4   7

Target = 9

Output: True

Example 2

Input: 
    5
   / \
  3   6
 / \   \
2   4   7

Target = 28

Output: False
  • [x] ### use set to store the difference between the target value and the current value, then when you encounter the difference return true, else return false
