Given a nested list of integers, return the sum of all integers in the list weighted by their depth. Each element is either an integer, or a list -- whose elements may also be integers or other lists.
Have you met this question in a real interview?
Yes
Example
Given the list[[1,1],2,[1,1]]
, return10
. (four 1's at depth 2, one 2 at depth 1, 4 * 1 * 2 + 1 * 2 * 1 = 10)
Given the list[1,[4,[6]]]
, return27
. (one 1 at depth 1, one 4 at depth 2, and one 6 at depth 3; 1 + 4_2 + 6_3 = 27)
