Maximum Depth of Binary Tree

https://oj.leetcode.com/problems/maximum-depth-of-binary-tree/

Given a binary tree, find its maximum depth.

The maximum depth is the number of nodes along the longest path from the root node down to the farthest leaf node.

/**
 * Definition for binary tree
 * public class TreeNode {
 *     int val;
 *     TreeNode left;
 *     TreeNode right;
 *     TreeNode(int x) { val = x; }
 * }
 */
public class Solution {
    public int maxDepth(TreeNode root) {
        if(root == null){
            return 0;
        }
        int left = maxDepth(root.left);
        int right = maxDepth(root.right);
        if(left > right){
            return left + 1;    
        }else{
            return right + 1;
        }
    }
}

解题思路：

递归。深度等于，左右子树较深的+1.
