LeetCode 236 | Lowest Common Ancestor of a Binary Tree

In this problem, we solve LeetCode 236 – Lowest Common Ancestor of a Binary Tree, a popular Binary Tree problem that focuses on finding the deepest node that is an ancestor of two given nodes. We explore how recursion and Depth First Search (DFS) can be used to efficiently locate the lowest common ancestor without relying on Binary Search Tree properties. 💡 In this video: -Understanding the Problem Statement -Brute Force Approach -Introduction to Binary Trees -What is a Lowest Common Ancestor? -Why BST Logic Cannot Be Applied -Recursive DFS Traversal -Searching Left and Right Subtrees -Identifying the Lowest Common Ancestor -Step-by-Step Dry Run -Time & Space Complexity Analysis -Java Implementation 🎯 This problem is a classic Binary Tree interview question that helps build intuition for recursive tree traversal, ancestor relationships, and divide-and-conquer techniques. 📌 Follow & Connect with Us: 🌐 Website: leetverse.vercel.app 📝 Registration link : https://forms.gle/QkGwatVBXDr6dpxi6 📸 Instagram:   / leetverse   ✨ LeetVerse — Learn, Code, Grow! #LeetCode #DSA #LowestCommonAncestor #BinaryTree #Trees #DFS #Recursion #Java #CodingInterview #ProblemSolving #LeetVerse #Algorithms
