Find the Minimum Cost to Reach Destination via Train
Given 'N' stations on a train route, where the train travels from station 0 to 'N'-1, determine the minimum cost to reach the final station using given ticket costs for each pair of stations (i, j) where j > i.
Input:
The first line contains an integer 'T', the number of test cases.
The first line of each test case contains a single integer 'N', indicating the size of the 'PRICE' matrix, which is N x N.
The following N lines each contain 'N' space-separated integers, representing the costs from station i to station j in the 'PRICE' matrix.
Output:
For each test case, output the minimum cost to travel from station 1 to station 'N'. Output each result on a new line.
Example:
If N = 3
PRICE[3][3] = [[0, 15, 80],
[INF, 0, 40],
[INF, INF, 0]];
The minimum cost is 55, achieved by traveling from station 1 to 2 with cost 15, then from station 2 to 3 with cost 40.
Constraints:
- 1 <= T <= 100
- 1 <= N <= 1000
Note:
Cost entries for j < i are represented by INT_MAX, which is 10000 in the matrix. You don't need to print anything - just implement and return the result.
