ROUND 2 (TECHNICAL ROUND):
- Problem 1: Given a frog with limited energy capacity standing on a source node. Initially, it has full energy. Moving from one node to another results in a reduction in energy by 1 and an increase in time by 1. There are energy drinks present at some nodes that it can make use of to increase energy. If its energy reduces to 0, it dies. Find the minimum time taken by the frog to reach the destination node. If it is impossible return -1.
