#C6446. Minimum Path Sum in a Matrix
Minimum Path Sum in a Matrix
Minimum Path Sum in a Matrix
You are given a matrix grid of non-negative integers with dimensions \(R \times C\). Each cell in the matrix represents the cost to traverse that cell. Your goal is to move from the top-left corner to the bottom-right corner of the matrix while incurring the minimum possible cost.
You can only move either down or right at any step. The task is to find and output the minimum path sum from the start to the destination.
If the grid is empty (that is, when either \(R=0\) or \(C=0\)), the output should be \(0\).
inputFormat
The input is read from standard input (stdin) and has the following format:
- The first line contains two integers \(R\) and \(C\), representing the number of rows and columns of the grid respectively.
- If both \(R > 0\) and \(C > 0\), the next \(R\) lines each contain \(C\) space-separated integers representing the grid's rows.
If either \(R=0\) or \(C=0\), the grid is considered empty and the answer is \(0\).
outputFormat
Output a single integer to standard output (stdout), representing the minimum path sum from the top-left to the bottom-right corner of the grid.
