104. Maximum Depth of Binary Tree

问题
Given the root of a binary tree, return its maximum depth.

A binary tree’s maximum depth is the number of nodes along the longest path from the root node down to the farthest leaf node.

递归，每次返回左子节点和右子节点中较大的结果+1。
当节点为null时返回0。

/**
 * Definition for a binary tree node.
 * public class TreeNode {
 *     int val;
 *     TreeNode left;
 *     TreeNode right;
 *     TreeNode() {}
 *     TreeNode(int val) { this.val = val; }
 *     TreeNode(int val, TreeNode left, TreeNode right) {
 *         this.val = val;
 *         this.left = left;
 *         this.right = right;
 *     }
 * }
 */
class Solution {
    public int maxDepth(TreeNode root) {
        if(root == null){
            return 0;
        }
        return Math.max(maxDepth(root.left),maxDepth(root.right))+1;
    }
}

BFS搜索，每次倾倒出队列里所有的元素并将level+1。
搜索完毕返回level。

class Solution {
    public int maxDepth(TreeNode root) {
        if(root == null){
            return 0;
        }
        Queue<TreeNode> q = new LinkedList();
        q.offer(root);
        int level = 0;
        while(!q.isEmpty()){
            int size = q.size();
            for (int i = 0; i < size; i++){
                TreeNode curr = q.poll();
                if(curr.left!=null){q.offer(curr.left);}
                if(curr.right!=null){q.offer(curr.right);}
            }
            level++;
        }
        return level;
    }
}
