You have been given a binary matrix of size 'N' * 'M' where each element is either 0 or 1. You are also given a source and a destination cell, both of them lie within the matrix.

Your task is to find the length of the shortest path from the source cell to the destination cell only consisting of 1s. If there is no path from source to destination cell, return -1.

Note:

1. Coordinates of the cells are given in 0-based indexing.
2. You can move in 4 directions (Up, Down, Left, Right) from a cell.
3. The length of the path is the number of 1s lying in the path.
4. The source cell is always filled with 1.

For example -

1 0 1
1 1 1
1 1 1
For the given binary matrix and source cell(0,0) and destination cell(0,2). Few valid paths consisting of only 1s are

X 0 X     X 0 X 
X X X     X 1 X 
1 1 1     X X X 
The length of the shortest path is 5.

You are given a Singly Linked List of integers. Return true if it has a cycle, else return false.

A cycle occurs when a node's next points back to a previous node in the list.

Example:

In the given linked list, there is a cycle, hence we return true.
