Tree Diameter Calculation

The diameter of a binary tree is the length of the longest path between any two nodes in the tree. Write a function that reads a binary tree from standard input in level-order format (using '#' for null nodes) and prints the diameter length. Input format: - The first line contains a space-separated list of values representing the binary tree in level-order. Output format: - A single integer representing the length of the tree diameter. Example: Input: 1 2 3 4 # # 5 # # # Output: 4
