Path Sum

Posted 2020-06-17

Given a binary tree and a sum, determine if the tree has a root-to-leaf path such that adding up all the values along the path equals the given sum.

For example:
Given the below binary tree and sum = 22,

              5
             /             4   8
           /   /           11  13  4
         /  \              7    2      1

return true, as there exist a root-to-leaf path 5->4->11->2 which sum is 22.
