Tower of Boxes
You have a stack of boxes, each with a width, height, and depth. You can only stack a box on top of another box if its dimensions are all strictly less than those of the box below it. Given the dimensions of a series of boxes, your task is to determine the maximum height you can achieve by stacking the boxes.
Input consists of an integer n followed by n lines of box dimensions (width, height, depth). Output the maximum height of the stacked boxes.
