Write a function to print spiral order traversal of a binary tree. For below tree, function should print 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.
Solution.
For a normal level order traversal of a binary tree, we traverse every level from left to right. To achieve this, a queue
is used to store the next level‘s nodes.
To do this traversal in a spiral order, we need to be able to add and poll nodes in a queue from its front and back.
This implies using Deque and a boolean flag to indicate if we are traversing from left to right or from right to left.
When traversing from right to left, we poll nodes from the end of dq; First add its right child node, then its left child node to the front of dq.
When traversing from left to right, we poll nodes from the front of dq; First add its left, then right child node to the back of dq.
After adding all nodes in one level, reverse the traversal direction flag.
