# [230. Kth Smallest Element in a BST](https://leetcode.com/problems/kth-smallest-element-in-a-bst/)
## 题目
Given a binary search tree, write a function `kthSmallest` to find the **k**th smallest element in it.
**Note:** You may assume k is always valid, 1 ≤ k ≤ BST's total elements.
**Example 1:**
Input: root = [3,1,4,null,2], k = 1
3
/ \
1 4
\
2
Output: 1
**Example 2:**
Input: root = [5,3,6,2,4,null,null,1], k = 3
5
/ \
3 6
/ \
2 4
/
1
Output: 3
**Follow up:**What if the BST is modified (insert/delete operations) often and you need to find the kth smallest frequently? How would you optimize the kthSmallest routine?
## 题目大意
给定一个二叉搜索树编写一个函数 kthSmallest 来查找其中第 k 个最小的元素。你可以假设 k 总是有效的1 ≤ k ≤ 二叉搜索树元素个数。
## 解题思路
- 由于二叉搜索树有序的特性,所以中根遍历它,遍历到第 K 个数的时候就是结果
