本文实例讲述了C++实现寻找最低公共父节点的方法，是数据结构中二叉树的经典算法。分享给大家供大家参考。具体方法如下：
最低公共父节点，意思很好理解。
思路1：最低公共父节点满足这样的条件：两个节点分别位于其左子树和右子树，那么定义两个bool变量，leftFlag和rightFlag，如果在左子树中，leftFlag为true，如果在右子树中，rightFlag为true，仅当leftFlag == rightFlag == true时，才能满足条件。
实现代码如下：

这类问题在面试的时候常会遇到，对此需要考虑以下情形：
1. node1和node2指向同一节点，这个如何处理
2. node1或node2有不为叶子节点的可能性吗
3. node1或node2一定在树中吗
还要考虑一个效率问题，上述代码中用了两个递归函数，而且存在不必要的递归过程，仔细思考，其实一个递归过程足以解决此问题
