0955. Delete Columns to Make Sorted II
Description
**Input:** strs = ["ca","bb","ac"]
**Output:** 1
**Explanation:**
After deleting the first column, strs = ["a", "b", "c"].
Now strs is in lexicographic order (ie. strs[0] <= strs[1] <= strs[2]).
We require at least 1 deletion since initially strs was not in lexicographic order, so the answer is 1.**Input:** strs = ["xc","yb","za"]
**Output:** 0
**Explanation:**
strs is already in lexicographic order, so we do not need to delete anything.
Note that the rows of strs are not necessarily in lexicographic order:
i.e., it is NOT necessarily true that (strs[0][0] <= strs[0][1] <= ...)ac
