Python solution:

def lowestCommonAns(nodeA, nodeB):
    ansA = set()
    while nodeA :
        ansA.add(nodeA.val)
        nodeA = nodeA.parent

    while nodeB:
        if nodeB is in ansA:
            return nodeB.val
        nodeB = nodeB.parent

    return "Error in Code"

    # Runtime is O(logn) because in the first while loop, we traverse the ladder to get to the root node
