Your goal is to implement an `invert(tree: Tree) -> Tree` function that performs a bit-reversal permutation on a `Tree`. Here is what we mean by that:\n\n1. Each leaf in the binary tree has a path leading to it, which can be represented as a sequence of bits: `False` (or `0`) for left, `True` (or `1`) for right.\n2. The bit-reversal permutation swaps a leaf at path `p` with the leaf at path `reverse(p)`. For example, a leaf at path `[False, False, True]` (left, left, right) would be swapped with the leaf at path `[True, False, False]` (right, left, left).\n\n**MANDATORY SYNTACTIC REQUIREMENTS:**\n1. The `invert` function must be a standalone and pure ONLY relying on an inner function `invert_helper(tree: Tree, flag: bool) -> Tree` that is itself a self-contained single pure recursive function.\n2. Only use recursion (no loops).\n3. Maintain purity (no side effects or mutability).\n\nThe `flag` parameter is an extra boolean that you can use as you want: the goal is that `invert_helper(tree, True)` should return the bit-reversed tree.\n\nThis is a very difficult problem, so think step-by-step before implementing your solution and carefully review it to make sure it meets all the requirements. Test your implementation against the test cases to verify its correctness. I guarantee you that it is solvable within the constraints.\n\"\"\"\n\n# Implement the `invert` function as follows:\ndef invert(tree: Tree) -> Tree:\n   def invert_helper(tree: Tree, flag: bool) -> Tree:\n      pass # Replace 'pass' with your implementation\n   return invert_helper(tree, True)\n\n# Tests:\ntest_tree1 = Node(\n    Node(\n        Node(Leaf(0), Leaf(1)),\n        Node(Leaf(2), Leaf(3))\n    ),\n    Node(\n        Node(Leaf(4), Leaf(5)),\n        Node(Leaf(6), Leaf(7))\n    )\n)\n\nexpected_tree1 = Node(\n    Node(\n        Node(Leaf(0), Leaf(4)),\n        Node(Leaf(2), Leaf(6))\n    ),\n    Node(\n        Node(Leaf(1), Leaf(5)),\n        Node(Leaf(3), Leaf(7))\n    )\n)\n\ntest_tree2 = Node(\n    Node(\n        Node(Leaf(1), Leaf(3)),\n        Node(Leaf(5), Leaf(7))\n    ),\n    Node(\n        Node(Leaf(0), Leaf(2)),\n        Node(Leaf(4), Leaf(6))\n    )\n)\n\nexpected_tree2 = Node(\n    Node(\n        Node(Leaf(1), Leaf(0)),\n        Node(Leaf(5), Leaf(4))\n    ),\n    Node(\n        Node(Leaf(3), Leaf(2)),\n        Node(Leaf(7), Leaf(6))\n    )\n)\n\ntest_tree3 = Node(\n    Node(\n        Node(\n            Node(Leaf(10), Leaf(14)),\n            Node(Leaf(4), Leaf(6))\n        ),\n        Node(\n            Node(Leaf(9), Leaf(1)),\n            Node(Leaf(0), Leaf(7))\n        )\n    ),\n    Node(\n        Node(\n            Node(Leaf(11), Leaf(15)),\n            Node(Leaf(2), Leaf(5))\n        ),\n        Node(\n            Node(Leaf(13), Leaf(12)),\n            Node(Leaf(8), Leaf(3))\n        )\n    )\n)\n\nexpected_tree3 = Node(\n    Node(\n        Node(\n            Node(Leaf(10), Leaf(11)),\n            Node(Leaf(9), Leaf(13))\n        ),\n        Node(\n            Node(Leaf(4), Leaf(2)),\n            Node(Leaf(0), Leaf(8))\n        )\n    ),\n    Node(\n        Node(\n            Node(Leaf(14), Leaf(15)),\n            Node(Leaf(1), Leaf(12))\n        ),\n        Node(\n            Node(Leaf(6), Leaf(5)),\n            Node(Leaf(7), Leaf(3))\n        )\n    )\n)\n\nfor input_tree, expected_tree in [\n   (test_tree1, expected_tree1),\n   (test_tree2, expected_tree2),\n   (test_tree3, expected_tree3),\n]:\n   print(\"Expected output:\")\n   print(expected_tree)\n   print(\"Actual output:\")\n   print(invert(input_tree))\n```"
