Problem

Given the root of an n-ary tree, return the preorder traversal of its nodes’ values. Nary-Tree input serialization is represented in their level order traversal. Each group of children is separated by the null value (See examples).

Examples

Example 1
Example 2

Constraints

  • The number of nodes in the tree is in the range [0, 10^4].
  • 0 <= Node.val <= 10^4
  • The height of the n-ary tree is less than or equal to 1000.
Follow up: Recursive solution is trivial, could you do it iteratively?
