python: In a binary search tree, write another way of function that takes in a root, p, and checks whether the tree rooted in p is a binary search tree or not. What is the time complexity of your function?

def is_bst(self, p):

    root=p

    def helper(root, l, r):

        if not root:

            return True

        if not (left<root.val and root.val<right):

            return False

        return helper(root.l, l, root.val) and helper(root.r, root.val, r)

 

    return helper(root, float('-inf'), float('inf'))
