Min Cost Path in Matrix

You are given a matrix of integers where each value represents the cost to move into that cell. You are tasked with finding the minimum cost to traverse from the top-left corner (0,0) to the bottom-right corner (m-1,n-1) of the matrix. You can only move right or down. Input format: - The first line contains two integers m and n (1 <= m, n <= 100) representing the dimensions of the matrix. - The next m lines each contain n integers representing the costs. Output format: - Return a single integer representing the minimum cost to reach the bottom-right corner. Example: Input: 3 3 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Output: 21
