问题 Hi Im little confused with the difference between the depth and the diameter of a tree.Sorry if Its already asked but I couldn't find it. 回答1: The depth of a node is the number of edges from the node to the tree's root node. A root node will have a depth of 0. The height of a node is the number of edges on the longest path from the node to a leaf. A leaf node will have a height of 0. The diameter (or width ) of a tree is the number of nodes on the longest path between any two leaf nodes. The
