A triplet is an array of three integers. You are given a 2D integer array triplets, where triplets[i] = [ai, bi, ci] describes the ith triplet. You are also given an integer array target = [x, y, z] that describes the triplet you want to obtain.

\n\n

To obtain target, you may apply the following operation on triplets any number of times (possibly zero):

\n\n\n\n

Return true if it is possible to obtain the target triplet [x, y, z] as an element of triplets, or false otherwise.

Example 1:

\n\n
\nInput: triplets = [[2,5,3],[1,8,4],[1,7,5]], target = [2,7,5]\nOutput: true\nExplanation: Perform the following operations:\n- Choose the first and last triplets [[2,5,3],[1,8,4],[1,7,5]]. Update the last triplet to be [max(2,1), max(5,7), max(3,5)] = [2,7,5]. triplets = [[2,5,3],[1,8,4],[2,7,5]]\nThe target triplet [2,7,5] is now an element of triplets.\n
\n\n

Example 2:

\n\n
\nInput: triplets = [[3,4,5],[4,5,6]], target = [3,2,5]\nOutput: false\nExplanation: It is impossible to have [3,2,5] as an element because there is no 2 in any of the triplets.\n
\n\n

Example 3:

\n\n
\nInput: triplets = [[2,5,3],[2,3,4],[1,2,5],[5,2,3]], target = [5,5,5]\nOutput: true\nExplanation: Perform the following operations:\n- Choose the first and third triplets [[2,5,3],[2,3,4],[1,2,5],[5,2,3]]. Update the third triplet to be [max(2,1), max(5,2), max(3,5)] = [2,5,5]. triplets = [[2,5,3],[2,3,4],[2,5,5],[5,2,3]].\n- Choose the third and fourth triplets [[2,5,3],[2,3,4],[2,5,5],[5,2,3]]. Update the fourth triplet to be [max(2,5), max(5,2), max(5,3)] = [5,5,5]. triplets = [[2,5,3],[2,3,4],[2,5,5],[5,5,5]].\nThe target triplet [5,5,5] is now an element of triplets.\n
