Minimum Score of a Path Between Two Cities

You are given a positive integer n representing n cities numbered from 1 to n.

You are given a positive integer n representing n cities numbered from 1 to n. You are also given a 2D array roads where roads[i] = [ai, bi, distancei] indicates that there is a bidirectional road between cities ai and bi with a distance equal to distancei. The cities graph is not necessarily connected.

The score of a path between two cities is defined as the minimum distance of a road in this path.

Return the minimum possible score of a path between cities 1 and n.

Example 1

Input: n = 4, roads = [[1,2,9],[2,3,6],[2,4,5],[1,4,7]]

Output: 5

Explanation: The path from city 1 to 4 with the minimum score is: 1 -> 2 -> 4. The score of this path is min(9,5) = 5. It can be shown that no other path has less score.

Example 2

Input: n = 4, roads = [[1,2,2],[1,3,4],[3,4,7]]

Output: 2

Explanation: The path from city 1 to 4 with the minimum score is: 1 -> 2 -> 1 -> 3 -> 4. The score of this path is min(2,2,4,7) = 2.

Constraints

  • 2 <= n <= 10^5
  • 1 <= roads.length <= 10^5
  • roads[i].length == 3
  • 1 <= ai, bi <= n
  • ai != bi
  • 1 <= distancei <= 10^4
  • There are no repeated edges.
  • There is at least one path between 1 and n.
