I added different structure for daily leetcode questions. Now answer with hints will be in comment section instead of separate post. Hope it will make things clearer. I'm 100% sure, maybe 1% of you are doing it with me, but at least for this 1% it will be extra motivation and competitive feeling (this guy did it today, I can do it as well)

Just realized I'm 25.... wtf is this, I feel like maybe 19-20 still

Bruteforce - quite easy, but we need something better than O(n*m)
Optimized - might be a bit hard
