MakeMyTripAppleSalesforce

Given a binary tree, return the vertical order traversal of the values of the nodes of the given tree.

For each node at position (X, Y), (X-1, Y-1) will be its left child position while (X+1, Y-1) will be the right child position.

Running a vertical line from X = -infinity to X = +infinity, now whenever this vertical line touches some nodes, we need to add those values of the nodes in order starting from top to bottom with the decreasing ‘Y’ coordinates.

Note:
If two nodes have the same position, then the value of the node that is added first will be the value that is on the left side.
For example:
For the binary tree in the image below.

The vertical order traversal will be {2, 7, 5, 2, 6, 5, 11, 4, 9}.
