LeetCode-binary-tree-zigzag-level-order-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.
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}".
