104. Maximum Depth of Binary Tree

Leetcode Tree Depth-first Search

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

分析

public int maxDepth(TreeNode root) {
    if (root == null) return 0;
    int left = maxDepth(root.left);
    int right = maxDepth(root.right);
    return Math.max(left, right) + 1;        
}
