Binary Tree Zigzag Level Traversal

Given a binary tree, return the zigzag level order traversal of its nodes' values. (ie, from left to right, then right to left for the next level and alternate between).

For example:
Given binary tree {3,9,20,#,#,15,7},

    3
   / \
  9  20
    /  \
   15   7

return its zigzag level order traversal as:

[
  [3],
  [20,9],
  [15,7]
] 

confused what "{1,#,2,3}" means? > read more on how binary tree is serialized on OJ.

 

Analyse: The same as Binary Tree Level Order Traversal except that we need a boolean variable to determine whether the current level need reverse.
