https://leetcode.com/problems/maximum-depth-of-binary-tree/
Given a binary tree, find its maximum depth.
The maximum depth is the number of nodes along the longest path from the root node down to the farthest leaf node.
Note: A leaf is a node with no children.
Example:
Given binary tree [3,9,20,null,null,15,7],
3
/ \
9 20
/ \
15 7
return its depth = 3.
Solution
/**
* Definition for a binary tree node.
* public class TreeNode {
* int val;
* TreeNode left;
* TreeNode right;
* TreeNode(int x) { val = x; }
* }
*/
// solution 1: recursion
// Time O(n)
// Space O(h)
class Solution {
public int maxDepth(TreeNode root) {
if(root == null) {
return 0;
}
return Math.max(maxDepth(root.left), maxDepth(root.right)) + 1;
}
}
// Todo: iterative
