Solution: Diameter of Binary Tree
Explore how to compute the diameter of a binary tree by applying depth-first search techniques. Understand how to calculate the longest path between nodes by considering paths through and apart from the root, and analyze the time and space complexity of the solution.
Statement
Given a binary tree, you need to compute the length of the tree’s diameter. The diameter of a binary tree is the length of the longest path between any two nodes in a tree. This path may or may not pass through the root.
Note: The length of the path between two nodes is represented by the number of edges between them.
Constraints:
- The number of nodes in the tree is in the range .
