Maximum Binary Tree II Problem
Description
LeetCode Problem 998.
A maximum tree is a tree where every node has a value greater than any other value in its subtree. You are given the root of a maximum binary tree and an integer val.
Just as in the previous problem, the given tree was constructed from a list a (root = Construct(a)) recursively with the following Construct(a) routine:
- If a is empty, return null.
- Otherwise, let a[i] be the largest element of a. Create a root node with the value a[i].
- The left child of root will be Construct([a[0], a[1], …, a[i - 1]]).
- The right child of root will be Construct([a[i + 1], a[i + 2], …, a[a.length - 1]]).
- Return root.
Note that we were not given a directly, only a root node root = Construct(a).
Suppose b is a copy of a with the value val appended to it. It is guaranteed that b has unique values. Return Construct(b).
Example 1:

3
Input: root = [4,1,3,null,null,2], val = 5
Output: [5,4,null,1,3,null,null,2]
Explanation: a = [1,4,2,3], b = [1,4,2,3,5]
Example 2:
1
2
3
Input: root = [5,2,4,null,1], val = 3
Output: [5,2,4,null,1,null,3]
Explanation: a = [2,1,5,4], b = [2,1,5,4,3]
Example 3:
1
2
3
Input: root = [5,2,3,null,1], val = 4
Output: [5,2,4,null,1,3]
Explanation: a = [2,1,5,3], b = [2,1,5,3,4]
Constraints:
- The number of nodes in the tree is in the range [1, 100].
- 1 <= Node.val <= 100
- All the values of the tree are unique.
- 1 <= val <= 100
