Solution: Longest Path With Different Adjacent Characters
Explore how to calculate the longest path in a rooted tree with no two adjacent nodes sharing the same character. Learn to use a topological sort approach to process nodes from leaves to root, track longest valid chains, and combine chains for the final longest path. Understand step-by-step how to efficiently solve this problem and analyze time and space complexities.
