[LeetCode&Python] Problem 101. Symmetric Tree

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

For example, this binary tree [1,2,2,3,4,4,3] is symmetric:

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

 

But the following [1,2,2,null,3,null,3] is not:

    1
   / \
  2   2
   \   \
   3    3

 

 BFS and Iterative:

# Definition for a binary tree node.
# class TreeNode(object):
#     def __init__(self, x):
#         self.val = x
#         self.left = None
#         self.right = None

class Solution(object):
    def isSymmetric(self, root):
        """
        :type root: TreeNode
        :rtype: bool
        """
        que=[root]
        while que:
            check=[]
            n=len(que)
            for i in range(n):
                node=que.pop(0)
                if node:
                    que.append(node.left)
                    que.append(node.right)
                    check.append(node.val)
                else:
                    check.append(None)
            n=len(check)
            for i in range(n):
                if check[i]!=check[n-i-1]:
                    return False
        return True
