1595. Minimum Cost to Connect Two Groups of Points
Difficulty: Hard
Topics: Array, Dynamic Programming, Bit Manipulation, Matrix, Bitmask
You are given two groups of points where the first group has size1 points, the second group has size2 points, and size1 >= size2.
The cost of the connection between any two points are given in an size1 x size2 matrix where cost[i][j] is the cost of connecting point i of the first group and point j of the second group. The groups are connected if each point in both groups is connected to one or more points in the opposite group. In other words, each point in...
