# 700.Search in a Binary Search Tree

**700.Search in a Binary Search Tree**

难度:Easy

> 给定二叉搜索树（BST）的根节点和一个值。 你需要在BST中找到节点值等于给定值的节点。 返回以该节点为根的子树。 如果节点不存在，则返回 NULL。

例如，

```
给定二叉搜索树:

        4
       / \
      2   7
     / \
    1   3

和值: 2
你应该返回如下子树:

      2     
     / \   
    1   3
在上述示例中，如果要找的值是 5，但因为没有节点值为 5，我们应该返回 NULL。
```

代码如下：

```
/**
 * Definition for a binary tree node.
 * struct TreeNode {
 *     int val;
 *     TreeNode *left;
 *     TreeNode *right;
 *     TreeNode(int x) : val(x), left(NULL), right(NULL) {}
 * };
 */
class Solution {
public:
    TreeNode* searchBST(TreeNode* root, int val) {
        if(!root) return NULL;
        if(root->val == val) return root;
        if(root->val > val ) return  searchBST(root->left,val) ;
        return searchBST(root->right,val);
    }
};
```

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://dfine.gitbook.io/leetcode/700.search_in_a_binary_search_tree.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
