Longest Path in a City
You live in a city represented as a 2D grid where each cell contains a non-negative integer representing the cost of moving through that cell. Your goal is to find the minimum cost to reach the bottom-right corner from the top-left corner if you can only move right or down.
Input Format:
- The first line contains an integer m (1 ≤ m ≤ 50), the number of rows.
- The second line contains an integer n (1 ≤ n ≤ 50), the number of columns.
- The following m lines each contain n space-separated integers representing the costs in the grid.
Output Format:
- Print a single integer: the minimum cost to reach the bottom-right corner.
Example:
Input:

1 2 3
4 5 6
Output:
