Remove all outgoing edges except edge with minimum weight

Given a directed graph having n nodes. For each node, delete all the outgoing edges except the outgoing edge with minimum weight. Apply this deletion operation for every node and then print the final graph remained where each node of the graph has at most one outgoing edge and that too with minimum weight.

Note: Here, graph is stored as Adjacency Matrix for ease.

Examples :



Input : Adjacency Matrix of input graph :
  | 1  2  3  4
---------------
1 | 0  3  2  5
2 | 0  2  4  7  
3 | 1  2  0  3
4 | 5  2  1  3

Output : Adjacency Matrix of output graph :
  | 1  2  3  4
---------------
1 | 0  0  2  0
2 | 0  2  0  0  
3 | 1  0  0  0
4 | 0  0  1  0

For every row of the adjacency matrix of graph keep the minimum element (except zero) and make rest of all zero. Do this for every row of the input matrix. Finally, print the resultant Matrix.
