Given a binary tree, check whether it is a mirror of itself (ie, symmetric around its center).

For example, this binary tree is symmetric:

    1
   / 
  2   2
 /  / 
3  4 4  3

But the following is not:

    1
   / 
  2   2
      
   3    3

Note:
Bonus points if you could solve it both recursively and iteratively.

confused what "{1,#,2,3}" means?
