This is how I solved the problem.
I solved this 2-months ago while practicing dp:-

Now, using its concepts CIMERGE can be solved.

Thanks! I’ll try this…
But I really suck at dp, always end up looking at the editorial… any tips? How do you approach dp?

You just have to change INT_MAX to some large value. INT_MAX has value of 2147483647 but the larger testcases may exceed this.

There is another INT_MAX inside the f function.
