Question:


Given a binary tree and a sum, determine if the tree has a root-to-leaf path such that adding up all the values along the path equals the given sum.



For example:




Given the below binary tree and


sum = 22


,

              5
             / \
            4   8
           /   / \
          11  13  4
         /  \      \
        7    2      1


return true, as there exist a root-to-leaf path

5->4->11->2

which sum is 22.
