222. Count Complete Tree Nodes

Medium

Given the root of a complete binary tree, return the number of the nodes in the tree.

According to Wikipedia, every level, except possibly the last, is completely filled in a complete binary tree, and all nodes in the last level are as far left as possible. It can have between 1 and 2h nodes inclusive at the last level h.

Design an algorithm that runs in less than O(n) time complexity.

Example 1:

Input: root = [1,2,3,4,5,6]

Output: 6

Example 2:

Input: root = []

Output: 0

Example 3:

Input: root = [1]

Output: 1
