题目描述
Given a binary tree, find its minimum depth.
The minimum depth is the number of nodes along the shortest path from the root node down to the nearest leaf node.
Note: A leaf is a node with no children.
Example:
Given binary tree [3,9,20,null,null,15,7],
return its minimum depth = 2.
方法思路
class Solution {
//Runtime: 0 ms, faster than 100.00%
//Memory Usage: 40.2 MB, less than 6.59%
public int minDepth(TreeNode root) {
if(root == null) return 0;
if(root.left == null) return 1 + minDepth(root.right);
if(root.right == null) return 1 + minDepth(root.left);
return 1+ Math.min(minDepth(root.left), minDepth(root.right));
}
