<p>Given the <code>root</code> of a binary tree, <em>check whether it is a mirror of itself</em> (i.e., symmetric around its center).</p>

<pre>
<strong>Input:</strong> root = [1,2,2,3,4,4,3]
<strong>Output:</strong> true
</pre>

<img alt="" src="https://assets.leetcode.com/uploads/2021/02/19/symtree2.jpg" style="width: 308px; height: 258px;" />
<pre>
<strong>Input:</strong> root = [1,2,2,null,3,null,3]
<strong>Output:</strong> false
</pre>

<p><strong>Constraints:</strong></p>

<ul>
	<li>The number of nodes in the tree is in the range <code>[1, 1000]</code>.</li>
	<li><code>-100 &lt;= Node.val &lt;= 100</code></li>
</ul>

<strong>Follow up:</strong> Could you solve it both recursively and iteratively?
