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.
Solution:
1 /** 2 * Definition for a binary tree node. 3 * struct TreeNode { 4 * int val; 5 * TreeNode *left; 6 * TreeNode *right; 7 * TreeNode(int x) : val(x), left(NULL), right(NULL) {} 8 * }; 9 */ 10 class Solution { 11 public: 12 int maxDepth(TreeNode* root) { 13 if(!root) 14 return 0; 15 else if(root->left && !root->right) 16 return 1+maxDepth(root->left); 17 else if(!root->left && root->right) 18 return 1+maxDepth(root->right); 19 else 20 return 1+max(maxDepth(root->right),maxDepth(root->left)); 21 } 22 };
