Binary Tree Height Calculation
Binary Tree Height Calculation
Problem Description
You are given a level-order traversal of a binary tree where -1
represents a null node. Your task is to calculate the height of the binary tree.
The height of a binary tree is defined as the length (number of nodes) of the longest path from the root to a leaf. Note that if the tree is empty (i.e., the first element is -1
), its height is 0.
The level-order traversal is provided in such a way that for each test case, the first number indicates the number of nodes in the traversal list, followed by that many integers.
For example, consider the level order: [3, 9, 20, -1, -1, 15, 7]. The height of the corresponding binary tree is 3.
Note: All formulas in explanations should be interpreted as follows: the height of a non-empty tree can be computed as
where Hleft and Hright are the heights of the left and right subtrees respectively.

Input Format
The first line contains an integer T
, the number of test cases.
For each test case, the first integer is N
which indicates the number of elements in the level-order traversal of the tree. The next N
integers represent the nodes of the tree in level-order, where -1
denotes a null node.
Example
5 7 3 9 20 -1 -1 15 7 5 1 -1 2 -1 -1 1 1 1 -1 11 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
