Print all nodes that are at distance k from a leaf node
Given a Binary Tree and a positive integer k, print all nodes that are distance k from a leaf node.
Here the meaning of distance is different from previous post. Here k distance from a leaf means k levels higher than a leaf node. For example if k is more than height of Binary Tree, then nothing should be printed. Expected time complexity is O(n) where n is the number nodes in the given Binary Tree.
The idea is to traverse the tree. Keep storing all ancestors till we hit a leaf node. When we reach a leaf node, we print the ancestor at distance k. We also need to keep track of nodes that are already printed as output. For that we use a boolean array visited[].

Output:
Nodes at distance 2 are: 1 3
Time Complexity: Time Complexity of above code is O(n) as the code does a simple tree traversal.
