Insert to a binary tree, recursi

Recursive:

TreeNode* insertIntoBST(TreeNode* root, int val) {
        if(!root){
           return new TreeNode(val);
        }
        
        if(root->val < val){
            root->right = insertIntoBST(root->right, val);
        }
        else{
            root->left = insertIntoBST(root->left, val);
        }
        
        return root;
    }

Iterative:

TreeNode* insertIntoBST(TreeNode* root, int val) {
        if(!root){
           return new TreeNode(val);
        }
        
        TreeNode *cur = root;
        
        while(cur){
            if(cur->val < val){
                if(cur->right == NULL){
                    cur->right = new TreeNode(val);
                    break;
                }
                else{
                    cur = cur->right;
                }
            }
            else{
                if(cur->left == NULL){
                    cur->left = new TreeNode(val);
                    break;
                }
                else{
                    cur = cur->left;
                }
            }
        }
        
        return root;
    }
