Given a graph, check whether the graph is bipartite or not. Your function should return true if the given graph's vertices can be divided into two independent sets, ‘U’ and ‘V’ such that every edge (‘u’, ‘v’) either connects a vertex from ‘U’ to ‘V’ or a vertex from ‘V’ to ‘U’.

You are given a 2D array ‘edges’ which contains 0 and 1, where ‘edges[i][j]’ = 1 denotes a bi-directional edge from ‘i’ to ‘j’.

Note:
If edges[i][j] = 1, that implies there is a bi-directional edge between ‘i’ and ‘j’, that means there exists both edges from ‘i’ to ‘j’ and to ‘j’ to ‘i’.

For example

Given:
‘N’ = 3
‘edges’ = [[0, 1, 1], [0, 0, 1], [0,0,0]].

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.
