    Given the inorder traversal of a binary tree, along with one of its preorder or postorder traversals, the original binary tree can be uniquely identified. We present two construction algorithms: one, which requires O(N) time, is time optimal but space inefficient, and the other requires O(N log N) time and O(N) space.
