<h2><a href="https://leetcode.com/problems/lowest-common-ancestor-of-a-binary-tree/">236. Lowest Common Ancestor of a Binary Tree</a></h2><h3>Medium</h3><hr><div><p>Given a binary tree, find the lowest common ancestor (LCA) of two given nodes in the tree.</p>

<p>According to the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lowest_common_ancestor" target="_blank">definition of LCA on Wikipedia</a>: “The lowest common ancestor is defined between two nodes <code>p</code> and <code>q</code> as the lowest node in <code>T</code> that has both <code>p</code> and <code>q</code> as descendants (where we allow <b>a node to be a descendant of itself</b>).”</p>

<p><strong class="example">Example 1:</strong></p>
<img alt="" src="https://assets.leetcode.com/uploads/2018/12/14/binarytree.png" style="width: 200px; height: 190px;">
<pre><strong>Input:</strong> root = [3,5,1,6,2,0,8,null,null,7,4], p = 5, q = 1
<strong>Output:</strong> 3
<strong>Explanation:</strong> The LCA of nodes 5 and 1 is 3.

<p><strong class="example">Example 2:</strong></p>
<img alt="" src="https://assets.leetcode.com/uploads/2018/12/14/binarytree.png" style="width: 200px; height: 190px;">
<pre><strong>Input:</strong> root = [3,5,1,6,2,0,8,null,null,7,4], p = 5, q = 4
<strong>Output:</strong> 5
<strong>Explanation:</strong> The LCA of nodes 5 and 4 is 5, since a node can be a descendant of itself according to the LCA definition.

<pre><strong>Input:</strong> root = [1,2], p = 1, q = 2
<strong>Output:</strong> 1
