Calculating the Sum of Left Leaf Nodes in a Binary Tree
To compute the sum of all left leaf nodes in a binary tree, implement a recursive traversal that identifies nodes where the left child exists and has no children. When such a node is found, accuumlate its value.
A helper function using reference accumulation:
void accumulateLeftLeafSum(TreeNode* root, int& total) {
if (!root) return;
