Given a nested list of integers, return the sum of all integers in the list weighted by their depth.

Each element is either an integer, or a list -- whose elements may also be integers or other lists.

Example 1:
Given the list [[1,1],2,[1,1]], return 10. (four 1's at depth 2, one 2 at depth 1)

Example 2:
Given the list [1,[4,[6]]], return 27. (one 1 at depth 1, one 4 at depth 2, and one 6 at depth 3; 1 + 4*2 + 6*3 = 27)

 

Sol:
 
 
Because the input is nested, it is natural to think about the problem in a recursive way. We go through the list of nested integers one by one, keeping track of the current depth d. If a nested integer is an integer n, we calculate its sum as time n×d. If the nested integer is a list, we calculate the sum of this list recursively using the same process but with depth d+1.
 
 
 

Complexity Analysis

The algorithm takes O(N) time, where N is the total number of nested elements in the input list. For example, the list [ [[[[1]]]], 2 ] contains 4 nested lists and 2 nested integers (1and 2), so N=6.

In terms of space, at most O(D) recursive calls are placed on the stack, where D is the maximum level of nesting in the input. For example, D=2 for the input [[1,1],2,[1,1]], and D=3 for the input [1,[4,[6]]].
