286. Walls and Gates

You are given a m x n 2D grid initialized with these three possible values.

  1. -1 - A wall or an obstacle.
  2. 0 - A gate.
  3. INF - Infinity means an empty room. We use the value 2 31 - 1 = 2147483647 to represent INF as you may assume that the distance to a gate is less than 2147483647 .

Fill each empty room with the distance to its nearest gate. If it is impossible to reach a gate, it should be filled with INF .

Example: 

Given the 2D grid:

INF  -1  0  INF
INF INF INF  -1
INF  -1 INF  -1
  0  -1 INF INF

After running your function, the 2D grid should be:

  3  -1   0   1
  2   2   1  -1
  1  -1   2  -1
  0  -1   3   4
