Diameter of Binary Tree

Explore how to calculate the diameter of a binary tree, defined as the longest path between any two nodes. This lesson teaches you to apply depth-first search to measure the path length and understand how tree structure affects the result. You will gain practical skills in analyzing and coding tree traversal solutions efficiently.

We'll cover the following...

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
