【leetcode】Binary Tree Zigzag Level Order Traversal

Question ：

Given a binary tree, return thezigzag level ordertraversal of its nodes' values. (ie, from left to right, then right to left for the next level and alternate between).

For example:
Given binary tree{3,9,20,#,#,15,7},

    3
   / \
  9  20
    /  \
   15   7

return its zigzag level order traversal as:

[
  [3],
  [20,9],
  [15,7]
]

confused what"{1,#,2,3}"means?> read more on how binary tree is serialized on OJ.
