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.

Example 1:

Input: [[1,1],2,[1,1]]
Output: 10 
Explanation: Four 1's at depth 2, one 2 at depth 1.

这道题算是LinkedIn的电话面试万年不变的一道题了,可以算是DFS,也可以算是BFS。思路差不多,对每一层的数字求和,按照深度加权,遇到list的时候把权重加一。

答出来之后一般会有个follow up,就是Nested List Weight Sum II
