Problem
-------
```
Given a complete binary tree, count the number of nodes.
Note:
Definition of a complete binary tree from Wikipedia:
In a complete binary tree every level, except possibly the last, is completely filled, and all nodes in the last level are as far left as possible. It can have between 1 and 2h nodes inclusive at the last level h.
Example:
Input:
1
/ \
2 3
/ \ /
4 5 6
Output: 6
```
Solution
----------
There should be a better way to do this than O(n) if you take advantage of the complete binary tree property.

return 0
leftRes = self.countNodes(root.left)
rightRes = self.countNodes(root.right)
return 1 + leftRes + rightRes
