#+PROPERTY: STUDY_DECK_02 * TODO 0778. Swim In Rising Water :hard: :PROPERTIES: :NEETCODE: [[file:../../roadmap.org::*0778. Swim In Rising Water][0778. Swim In Rising Water]] :END: You are given an ~n x n~ integer matrix ~grid~ where each value ~grid[i][j]~ represents the elevation at that point ~(i, j)~. It starts raining, and water gradually rises over time. At time ~t~, the water level is ~t~, meaning *any* cell with elevation less than equal to ~t~ is submerged or reachable. You can swim from a square to another 4-directionally adjacent square if and only if the elevation of both squares individually are at most ~t~. You can swim infinite distances in zero time. Of course, you must stay within the boundaries of the grid during your swim. Return /the minimum time until you can reach the bottom right square /~(n - 1, n - 1)~/ if you start at the top left square /~(0, 0)~. *Example 1:* #+begin_src Input: grid = [[0,2],[1,3]] Output: 3 Explanation: At time 0, you are in grid location (0, 0). You cannot go anywhere else because 4-directionally adjacent neighbors have a higher elevation than t = 0. You cannot reach point (1, 1) until time 3. When the depth of water is 3, we can swim anywhere inside the grid. #+end_src *Example 2:* #+begin_src Input: grid = [[0,1,2,3,4],[24,23,22,21,5],[12,13,14,15,16],[11,17,18,19,20],[10,9,8,7,6]] Output: 16 Explanation: The final route is shown. We need to wait until time 16 so that (0, 0) and (4, 4) are connected. #+end_src *Constraints:* - ~n == grid.length~ - ~n == grid[i].length~ - ~1 <= n <= 50~ - ~0 <= grid[i][j] < n^{2}~ - Each value ~grid[i][j]~ is *unique*. ** TODO Approach Write your approach here. ** TODO Python #+begin_src python class Solution: def swimInWater(self, grid: List[List[int]]) -> int: #+end_src ** TODO C++ #+begin_src cpp class Solution { public: int swimInWater(vector>& grid) { } }; #+end_src
