Trivia:
This problem was inspired by this original tweet by Max Howell:
Google: 90% of our engineers use the software you wrote (Homebrew), but you can’t invert a binary tree on a whiteboard so fuck off.
public class Solution {
public TreeNode invertTree(TreeNode root) {
if(root==null) return null;
TreeNode right=root.right;
TreeNode left =root.left;
root.right=invertTree(left);
root.left=invertTree(right);
return root;
}
}
