Minimum Falling Path Sum II

Given an n x n integer matrix grid, return the minimum sum of a falling path with non-zero shifts.

A falling path with non-zero shifts is a choice of exactly one element from each row of grid such that no two elements chosen in adjacent rows are in the same column.

Example 1
1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8 9
Inputgrid = [[1,2,3],[4,5,6],[7,8,9]]
Output13
The falling path with the smallest sum is [1, 5, 7], so the answer is 13.
Example 2
7
Inputgrid = [[7]]
Output7
The only possible falling path is [7], so the minimum sum is 7.

Constraints

  • n == grid.length == grid[i].length
  • 1 <= n <= 200
  • -99 <= grid[i][j] <= 99
