this program will simulate the spreading of a disease through a

the number of turns taken before everyone on the grid is immunized
to the disease after having caught it once.
This program will user the SIR model (Susceptible, Infectious, Recovered)

/*
Good morning! Here's your coding interview problem for today.

This problem was asked by LinkedIn.

A wall consists of several rows of bricks of various integer lengths and uniform height. Your goal is to find a vertical line going from the top to the bottom of the wall that cuts through the fewest number of bricks. If the line goes through the edge between two bricks, this does not count as a cut.

For example, suppose the input is as follows, where values in each row represent the lengths of bricks in that row:

[[3, 5, 1, 1],
	[2, 3, 3, 2],
	[5, 5],
	[4, 4, 2],
	[1, 3, 3, 3],
	[1, 1, 6, 1, 1]]

The best we can we do here is to draw a line after the eighth brick, which will only require cutting through the bricks in the third and fifth row.

Given an input consisting of brick lengths for each row such as the one above, return the fewest number of bricks that must be cut to create a vertical line.

AUTHORS NOTE:
Makes following assumptions:
- Each row is same length
- Data is in file called "data.dat" and formatted in space-separated rows
- The cuts at the beginning and end of the wall are not solutions

This requires the following file named data.dat that is a space separated file, or similar formatted file:
----START FILE----
3 5 1 1
2 3 3 2
5 5
4 4 2
1 3 3 3
1 1 6 1 1
----END FILE----
