Longest Univalue Path

Given a binary tree, find the length of the longest path where each node in the path has the same value. This path may or may not pass through the root.

Note:The length of path between two nodes is represented by the number of edges between them.

Example 1:

Input:

              5
             / \
            4   5
           / \   \
          1   1   5

Output:

2

Example 2:

Input:

              1
             / \
            4   5
           / \   \
          4   4   5

Output:

2

Note: The given binary tree has not more than 10000 nodes. The height of the tree is not more than 1000.

Solution

/**
 * Definition for a binary tree node.
 * public class TreeNode {
 *     int val;
 *     TreeNode left;
 *     TreeNode right;
 *     TreeNode(int x) { val = x; }
 * }
 */
class Solution {
    public int longestUnivaluePath(TreeNode root) {

    }
}
