Leetcode(108) Convert Sorted Array to Binary Search Tree

Description

Given an array where elements are sorted in ascending order, convert it to a height balanced BST.

For this problem, a height-balanced binary tree is defined as a binary tree in which the depth of the two subtrees of every node never differ by more than 1.

Example:

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
Given the sorted array: [-10,-3,0,5,9],

One possible answer is: [0,-3,9,-10,null,5], which represents the following height balanced BST:

0
/ \
-3 9
/ /
-10 5

解法

左右递归分别建树即可。注意终止条件的处理
