Symmetric Tree is an example of tree problems. In this post we will see how we can solve in Javascript.

Problem Description

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

Note: Bonus points if you could solve it both recursively and iteratively.

Please check the main.js snippet for the solution.
