题目链接：Symmetric Tree

Given a binary tree, check whether it is a mirror of itself (ie, symmetric around its center).

For example, this binary tree is symmetric:

    1 
   / \ 
  2   2 
 / \ / \ 
3  4 4  3

But the following is not:

    1 
   / \ 
  2   2 
   \   \ 
   3    3

Note:

Bonus points if you could solve it both recursively and iteratively.

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

OJ's Binary Tree Serialization:

The serialization of a binary tree follows a level order traversal, where '#' signifies a path terminator where no node exists below.

Here's an example:

   1 
  / \ 
 2   3 
    / 
   4 
    \ 
     5

The above binary tree is serialized as "{1,2,3,#,#,4,#,#,5}".

这道题的要求是判断一棵树是否是对称的。

采用递归的思路，类似Same Tree，只不过这里是判断对称。

两棵子树l和r对称，也就是l和r的节点数字相同，而且l的左子树和r的右子树对称 而且 l的右子树和r的左子树对称。

时间复杂度：O(n)

空间复杂度：O(1)

 1 class Solution
 2 {
 3 public:
 4     bool isSymmetric(TreeNode *root)
 5     {
 6         if(root == NULL)
 7             return true;
 8         return isSymmetric(root -> left, root -> right);
 9     }
10 private:
11     bool isSymmetric(TreeNode *l, TreeNode *r)
12     {
13         if(l != NULL && r != NULL)
14             return l -> val == r -> val 
15                 && isSymmetric(l -> left, r -> right) 
16                 && isSymmetric(l -> right, r -> left);
17         else
18             return l == NULL && r == NULL;
19     }
20 };

至于迭代的方法，未完待续。。。
