Maximize count of set bits in a root to leaf path in a binary tree

Given a binary tree, the task is to find the total count of set bits in the node values of all the root to leaf paths and print the maximum among them.

Examples:

Input:

Output: 12
Explanation:
Path 1: 15(1111)->3(0011)->5(0101) = 8
Path 2: 15(1111)->3(0011)->1(0001) = 7
Path 3: 15(01111)->7(00111)->31(11111) = 12 (maximum)
Path 4: 15(1111)->7(0111)->9(1001) = 9
Therefore, the maximum count of set bits obtained in a path is 12.

Input:

Output: 13
Explanation:
Path 1: 31(11111)->3(00011)->7(00111) = 10
Path 2: 31(11111)->3(00011)->1(00001) = 8
Path 3: 31(11111)->15(01111)->5(00101) = 11
Path 4: 31(11111)->15(01111)->23(10111) = 13 (maximum)
Therefore, the maximum count of set bits obtained in a path is 13.

 

Approach
Follow the steps below to solve the problem:

  • Traverse each node recursively, starting from the root node
  • Calculate the number of set bits in the value of the current node.
  • Update the maximum count of set bits(stored in a variable, say maxm).
  • Traverse its left and right subtree.
  • After complete traversal of all the nodes of the tree, print the final value of maxm as the answer.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++




// C++ Program to implement
// the above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
int maxm = 0;
 
// Node structure
struct Node {
    int val;
 
    // Pointers to left
    // and right child
    Node *left, *right;
 
    // Initialize constructor
    Node(int x)
    {
        val = x;
        left = NULL;
        right = NULL;
    }
};
 
// Function to find the maximum
// count of setbits in a root to leaf
void maxm_setbits(Node* root, int ans)
{
    // Check if root is not null
    if (!root)
        return;
 
    if (root->left == NULL
        && root->right == NULL) {
 
        ans += __builtin_popcount(root->val);
 
        // Update the maximum count
        // of setbits
        maxm = max(ans, maxm);
 
        return;
    }
 
    // Traverse left of binary tree
    maxm_setbits(root->left,
                ans + __builtin_popcount(
                        root->val));
 
    // Traverse right of the binary tree
    maxm_setbits(root->right,
                ans + __builtin_popcount(
                        root->val));
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
    Node* root = new Node(15);
    root->left = new Node(3);
    root->right = new Node(7);
    root->left->left = new Node(5);
    root->left->right = new Node(1);
    root->right->left = new Node(31);
    root->right->right = new Node(9);
 
    maxm_setbits(root, 0);
 
    cout << maxm << endl;
 
    return 0;
}

    {
        ans += Integer.bitCount(root.val);
 
        // Update the maximum count
        // of setbits
        maxm = Math.max(ans, maxm);
 
        return;
    }
 
    // Traverse left of binary tree
    maxm_setbits(root.left,
