Minimum Depth of Binary Tree
Given a binary tree, find its minimum depth.
The minimum depth is the number of nodes along the shortest path from the root node down to the nearest leaf node.
Note: A leaf is a node with no children.
Example:
Given binary tree [3,9,20,null,null,15,7],
    3
   / \
  9  20
    /  \
   15   7return its minimum depth = 2.
public class Solution {
    public int minDepth(TreeNode root) {
        if (root == null)
            return 0;
        int left = minDepth(root.left);
        int right = minDepth(root.right);
        return (left == 0 || right == 0) ? left + right + 1 : Math.min(left, right) + 1;
    }
