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.
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}".
