HackerEarth Magic Sum problem solution

YASH PAL, 31 July 2024
In this HackerEarth Magic Sum problem solution We have a FULL binary tree i.e. each node except leaves has two children.
The magic sum between any two leaf nodes (both possibly same) is the number obtained after adding values of all the nodes (including starting and ending nodes) in a unique path from first leaf to the later one.
Your task is to find the maximum magic sum in the binary tree.
