You are given an integer array cost
where cost[i]
is the cost of ith
step on a staircase. Once you pay the cost, you can either climb one or two steps.
You can either start from the step with index 0
, or the step with index 1
.
Return the minimum cost to reach the top of the floor.
Example 1:
Input: cost = [10,15,20] Output: 15 Explanation: Cheapest is: start on cost[1], pay that cost, and go to the top.
Example 2:
Input: cost = [1,100,1,1,1,100,1,1,100,1] Output: 6 Explanation: Cheapest is: start on cost[0], and only step on 1s, skipping cost[3].
Constraints:
2 <= cost.length <= 1000
0 <= cost[i] <= 999
