This approach uses recursion to evaluate the binary boolean tree. Starting from the root, recursively evaluate the left and right children of each node. If a node is a leaf, return its boolean value. If a node is non-leaf, apply the boolean operation defined by its value on its children's evaluations (OR for 2, AND for 3).
Time Complexity: O(n) where n is the number of nodes, since we need to visit each node once.
Space Complexity: O(h) where h is the height of the tree, due to the recursion stack.

17}The Java code demonstrates a similar recursive function. It determines whether the TreeNode is a leaf by checking its children and performs recursion accordingly, applying logical 'OR' or 'AND' based on node values.
This method employs an iterative approach using a stack to emulate the recursive behavior. By performing a depth-first traversal, it uses a stack to track nodes and their processed children, evaluating each in line with the tree's logic operations.
Time Complexity: O(n), as all nodes are processed.
Space Complexity: O(n), given the stack memory employment.

}C# employs a procedural stack to navigate node evaluations, storing temporary results atop the stack, and computing parent's value once children have been processed through logical operations.
