All Possible Full Binary Trees — dynamic programming

Each answer is a combination of smaller answers already in the table. Built for LeetCode 894. All Possible Full Binary Trees.

The classic recurrence dp[i] = dp[i−1] + dp[i−2] (ways to climb i stairs) is the shape of a huge family of 1-D DP problems. Fill left to right; two rolling variables are enough.

Algorithm

  1. Base: a, b = 1, 1 (ways to reach step 0 and 1).
  2. For i from 2 to n, a, b = b, a+b.
  3. Return b.
