Delete Node in Binary Search Tree Problem Statement
You are provided with a Binary Search Tree (BST) containing 'N' nodes with integer data. Your task is to remove a given node from this BST.
A BST is a binary tree with the following properties:
- The left subtree of a node contains only nodes with data less than the node's data.
- The right subtree of a node contains only nodes with data greater than the node's data.
- Both left and right subtrees must also be binary search trees.
Input:
T N1 L1 L2 ... LN D
Where:
- T: Number of test cases.
- Each test case consists of two lines:
- First line: Tree elements in level order, '-1' specifies a null node.
- Second line: Data of the node to delete.
Output:
Inorder traversal of the modified BST for each test case.
Example:
Input:
1
1 2 3 4 -1 5 6 -1 7 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1 -1
5
Output:
4 2 1 6 3 7
Explanation:
After deleting the node with data 5, the inorder traversal of the BST is: 4 2 1 6 3 7.
Constraints:
- 1 <= T <= 100
- 1 <= N <= 5000
- 0 <= data <= 105
Time Limit: 1 second
Note:
- The node to be deleted is guaranteed to be present in the tree.
- If the tree becomes empty after deletion, the output should be -1.
- No need to print the output; just implement the function.
- For inorder traversal, visit the left subtree, then the node, and finally the right subtree.
