Given two binary trees, write a function to check if they are equal or not. Two binary trees are considered equal if they are structurally identical and the nodes have the same value.
/**
* Definition for binary tree
* public class TreeNode {
* int val;
* TreeNode left;
* TreeNode right;
* TreeNode(int x) { val = x; }
* }
*/
public class Solution {
public boolean isSameTree(TreeNode p, TreeNode q) {
// Start typing your Java solution below
// DO NOT write main() function
if(p == null && q == null) {
return true;
} else if(p == null || q == null) {
return false;
}
boolean isLeftSame = isSameTree(p.left, q.left);
boolean isRightSame = isSameTree(p.right, q.right);
return p.val==q.val && isLeftSame && isRightSame;
}
}

Can check for condition p.val == q.val before comparing left and right subtrees!
