Minimum depth of binary tree
# Definition for a binary tree node.
# class TreeNode:
# def __init__(self, val=0, left=None, right=None):
# self.val = val
# self.left = left
# self.right = right
class Solution:
def minDepth(self, root: Optional[TreeNode]) -> int:
if not root:
return 0
queue = deque([(root, 1)])
rs = 0
node = root
while node:
node, node.level = queue.popleft()
rs = node.level
if not node.left and not node.right:
return rs
if node.left:
queue.append((node.left, node.level + 1))
if node.right:
queue.append((node.right, node.level + 1))
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 1:

Input: root = [3,9,20,null,null,15,7] Output: 2
Example 2:
Input: root = [2,null,3,null,4,null,5,null,6] Output: 5
Constraints:
- The number of nodes in the tree is in the range
[0, 105]. -1000 <= Node.val <= 1000
