如果root节点为空则返回0,否则递归求左右孩子的高度,求出以后求两者的较大者并且深度加1

/**

 *    int val;
 *    struct TreeNode *left;
 *    struct TreeNode *right;

class Solution {
public:
    /**
     * 
     * @param root TreeNode类 
     * @return int整型
     */
    int maxDepth(TreeNode* root) {
        // write code here
        return root == NULL ? 0 : 1+max(maxDepth(root->left), maxDepth(root->right));
    }
};
