    3502 - Minimum Cost to Reach Every Position.

    Easy

    You are given an integer array cost of size n. You are currently at position n (at the end of the line) in a line of n + 1 people (numbered from 0 to n).

    You wish to move forward in the line, but each person in front of you charges a specific amount to swap places. The cost to swap with person i is given by cost[i].

    You are allowed to swap places with people as follows:

    • If they are in front of you, you must pay them cost[i] to swap with them.

    • If they are behind you, they can swap with you for free.

    Return an array answer of size n, where answer[i] is the minimum total cost to reach each position i in the line.

    Example 1:

    Input: cost = 5,3,4,1,3,2

    Output: 5,3,3,1,1,1

    Explanation:

    We can get to each position in the following way:

    • i = 0. We can swap with person 0 for a cost of 5.

    • i = 1. We can swap with person 1 for a cost of 3.

    • i = 2. We can swap with person 1 for a cost of 3, then swap with person 2 for free.

    • i = 3. We can swap with person 3 for a cost of 1.

    • i = 4. We can swap with person 3 for a cost of 1, then swap with person 4 for free.

    • i = 5. We can swap with person 3 for a cost of 1, then swap with person 5 for free.

    Example 2:

    Input: cost = 1,2,4,6,7

    Output: 1,1,1,1,1

    Explanation:

    We can swap with person 0 for a cost of 1, then we will be able to reach any position i for free.

    Constraints:

    • 1 <= n == cost.length <= 100

    • 1 <= cost[i] <= 100
