Problem: Maximum Depth of Binary Tree

Medium
30 min
Explore how to find the maximum depth of a binary tree by traversing nodes from root to the deepest leaf. Understand the use of depth-first search for binary tree problems, practice your logic with a coding puzzle, and implement an optimal solution with O(n) time complexity.

Statement

You are given the root of a binary tree, and your task is to determine the maximum depth of this tree. The maximum depth of a binary tree is determined by the count of nodes found on the longest path from the root node to the farthest leaf node.

Constraints:

  • The number of nodes in the tree is in the range [1,500].[1, 500].

  • 100-100 \leqNode.data 100\leq 100
