Leetcode662-maximumWidthofBinaryTree

Description

Given a binary tree, write a function to get the maximum width of the given tree. The width of a tree is the maximum width among all levels. The binary tree has the same structure as a full binary tree, but some nodes are null.

The width of one level is defined as the length between the end-nodes (the leftmost and right most non-null nodes in the level, where the null nodes between the end-nodes are also counted into the length calculation.

Solution

Solution 1: Best solution

Used list to record the start index of current level. The index of root is 1. The left child and right can be represented as 2 i and 2 i + 1. So the width of one level is the index of right most node - left most node + 1.
