LeetCode: Paint House

//There are a row of n houses, each house can be painted with one of the three colors:
//red, blue or green.
//The cost of painting each house with a certain color is different.
//You have to paint all the houses such
//that no two adjacent houses have the same color.

//The cost of painting each house with a certain color is represented by a n x 3 cost matrix.
//For example,
//costs[0][0] is the cost of painting house 0 with color red;
//costs[1][2] is the cost of painting house 1 with color green, and so on...
//Find the minimum cost to paint all houses.

//Note:
//All costs are positive integers.
