1740. Find Distance in a Binary Tree

https://leetcode.com/problems/find-distance-in-a-binary-tree

Description

Given the root of a binary tree and two integers p and q, return the distance between the nodes of value p and value q in the tree.

The distance between two nodes is the number of edges on the path from one to the other.

Example 1:

**Input:** root = [3,5,1,6,2,0,8,null,null,7,4], p = 5, q = 0
**Output:** 3
**Explanation:** There are 3 edges between 5 and 0: 5-3-1-0.

Example 2:

**Input:** root = [3,5,1,6,2,0,8,null,null,7,4], p = 5, q = 7
**Output:** 2
**Explanation:** There are 2 edges between 5 and 7: 5-2-7.

Example 3:

**Input:** root = [3,5,1,6,2,0,8,null,null,7,4], p = 5, q = 5
**Output:** 0
**Explanation:** The distance between a node and itself is 0.

Constraints:

  • The number of nodes in the tree is in the range [1, 104].

  • 0 <= Node.val <= 109

  • All Node.val are unique.

  • p and q are values in the tree.
