[LeetCode] 865. Smallest Subtree with all the Deepest Nodes

Given the root of a binary tree, the depth of each node is the shortest distance to the root.

Return the smallest subtree such that it contains all the deepest nodes in the original tree.

A node is called the deepest if it has the largest depth possible among any node in the entire tree.

The subtree of a node is tree consisting of that node, plus the set of all descendants of that node.

Note: This question is the same as 1123: https://leetcode.com/problems/lowest-common-ancestor-of-deepest-leaves/

Example 1:

Input: root = [3,5,1,6,2,0,8,null,null,7,4]
Output: [2,7,4]
Explanation: We return the node with value 2, colored in yellow in the diagram.
The nodes coloured in blue are the deepest nodes of the tree.
Notice that nodes 5, 3 and 2 contain the deepest nodes in the tree but node 2 is the smallest subtree among them, so we return it.

Example 2:

Input: root = [1]
Output: [1]
Explanation: The root is the deepest node in the tree.

Example 3:

Input: root = [0,1,3,null,2]
Output: [2]
Explanation: The deepest node in the tree is 2, the valid subtrees are the subtrees of nodes 2, 1 and 0 but the subtree of node 2 is the smallest.

Constraints:

The number of nodes in the tree will be in the range [1, 500].
0 <= Node.val <= 500
The values of the nodes in the tree are unique.

具有所有最深节点的最小子树。

给定一个根为 root 的二叉树，每个节点的深度是该节点到根的最短距离。

如果一个节点在整个树的任意节点之间具有最大的深度，则该节点是最深的。

一个节点的子树是该节点加上它的所有后代的集合。

返回能满足以该节点为根的子树中包含所有最深的节点这一条件的具有最大深度的节点。

这道题的思路类似236题，思路是DFS。题目让我们找一个最小的子树 subtree，这个 subtree 需要满足他的左右叶子节点是整棵树里深度最深的两个节点。

找叶子节点的深度不难，参考104题。找到最大深度之后，如果左子树的深度 == 右子树的深度，那么说明只有以根节点 root 形成的树才是满足题意的子树，否则我们就看到底哪个子树的左右孩子的深度一样。详细参见代码注释。
