LeetCode算法题目：Maximum Depth of Binary Tree

题目：

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.

分析：

1. 求二叉树的最大深度问题用到深度优先搜索DFS，递归的完美应用，跟求二叉树的最小深度问题原理相同。
2. 我们也可以使用层序遍历二叉树，然后计数总层数，即为二叉树的最大深度.

代码：

class Solution {
public:
    int maxDepth(TreeNode* root) {
        if (!root) return 0;
        return 1 + max(maxDepth(root->left), maxDepth(root->right));
    }
};

class Solution {
public:
    int maxDepth(TreeNode* root) {
        if (!root) return 0;
        int res = 0;
        queue<TreeNode*> q;
        q.push(root);
        while (!q.empty()) {
            ++res;
            int n = q.size();
            for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i) {
                TreeNode *t = q.front(); q.pop();
                if (t->left) q.push(t->left);
                if (t->right) q.push(t->right);
            }
        }
        return res;
    }
};
