Maximum Depth of Binary Tree
Last updated
What is Maximum Depth of Binary Tree?
Given a binary tree, return its maximum depth, meaning the number of nodes along the longest root-to-leaf path. You recursively compute the depth of left and right subtrees and return one plus the greater. This is the simplest tree DFS problem and teaches you to think about trees recursively: a tree's depth is defined in terms of its subtrees' depths.
