LeetCode 687 Longest Univalue Path | 🔴 LIVE (Failed Attempt)

I attempt LeetCode 687: Longest Univalue Path. This problem involves finding the longest path in a binary tree where all nodes along the path have the same value.

Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to solve this one on my own. However, I carefully reviewed the solution provided by Copilot and gained a solid understanding of the problem and its solution.

Problem Highlights:

Key concepts include depth-first search (DFS) and recursive tree traversal.
The challenge is correctly updating path lengths while managing recursive calls.
