Description

Given a matrix of integers, find the longest path of increasing numbers. You can move in four possible directions: up, down, left, or right. The path cannot revisit the same cell. The solver must determine the length of the longest possible path in this matrix. If the matrix is empty, return 0.

Input Specification

A 2D list of integers representing the matrix. The matrix can have dimensions up to 100x100.

Output Specification

An integer representing the length of the longest increasing path.

Starter Code

def solve(input):
    pass

Example Test Cases

Test Case 1

Input

{ "matrix": [
  [9, 9, 4],
  [6, 6, 8],

] }

Expected Output

4

Test Case 2

Input

{ "matrix": [
  [3, 4, 5],
  [3, 2, 6],
  [2, 2, 1]
] }

Expected Output

4
