<p>You are a hiker preparing for an upcoming hike. You are given <code>heights</code>, a 2D array of size <code>rows x columns</code>, where <code>heights[row][col]</code> represents the height of cell <code>(row, col)</code>. You are situated in the top-left cell, <code>(0, 0)</code>, and you hope to travel to the bottom-right cell, <code>(rows-1, columns-1)</code> (i.e.,&nbsp;<strong>0-indexed</strong>). You can move <strong>up</strong>, <strong>down</strong>, <strong>left</strong>, or <strong>right</strong>, and you wish to find a route that requires the minimum <strong>effort</strong>.</p>

<p>A route&#39;s <strong>effort</strong> is the <strong>maximum absolute difference</strong><strong> </strong>in heights between two consecutive cells of the route.</p>

<p>Return <em>the minimum <strong>effort</strong> required to travel from the top-left cell to the bottom-right cell.</em></p>

<p><img alt="" src="https://assets.leetcode.com/uploads/2020/10/04/ex1.png" style="width: 300px; height: 300px;" /></p>

<pre>
<strong>Input:</strong> heights = [[1,2,2],[3,8,2],[5,3,5]]
<strong>Output:</strong> 2
<strong>Explanation:</strong> The route of [1,3,5,3,5] has a maximum absolute difference of 2 in consecutive cells.
This is better than the route of [1,2,2,2,5], where the maximum absolute difference is 3.

<p><img alt="" src="https://assets.leetcode.com/uploads/2020/10/04/ex2.png" style="width: 300px; height: 300px;" /></p>

<pre>
<strong>Input:</strong> heights = [[1,2,3],[3,8,4],[5,3,5]]
<strong>Output:</strong> 1
<strong>Explanation:</strong> The route of [1,2,3,4,5] has a maximum absolute difference of 1 in consecutive cells, which is better than route [1,3,5,3,5].

<img alt="" src="https://assets.leetcode.com/uploads/2020/10/04/ex3.png" style="width: 300px; height: 300px;" />
<pre>
<strong>Input:</strong> heights = [[1,2,1,1,1],[1,2,1,2,1],[1,2,1,2,1],[1,2,1,2,1],[1,1,1,2,1]]
<strong>Output:</strong> 0
<strong>Explanation:</strong> This route does not require any effort.
