101. Symmetric Tree

Easy

Given the root of a binary tree, check whether it is a mirror of itself (i.e., symmetric around its center).

Example 1:

Input: root = [1,2,2,3,4,4,3]

Output: true

Example 2:

Input: root = [1,2,2,null,3,null,3]

Output: false

Constraints:

Follow up: Could you solve it both recursively and iteratively?

Solution

using LeetCodeNet.Com_github_leetcode;

/**
 * Definition for a binary tree node.
 * public class TreeNode {
 *     public int val;
 *     public TreeNode left;
 *     public TreeNode right;
 *     public TreeNode(int val=0, TreeNode left=null, TreeNode right=null) {
 *         this.val = val;
 *         this.left = left;
 *         this.right = right;
