Solution Guide: Path Sum

Approach

Subtract each node value while descending, and check target at leaf nodes.

Complexity Analysis

Time
O(n) where n is node count
Space
O(h) where h is tree height

Pattern

Root-to-Leaf DFS

Why It Works

A valid path is exactly a recursive reduction of remaining target by each visited value.
