The basic logic is
that after swapping all the rows of the input chip-matrix are arranged in a
descending order of the ASCII values of the characters when seen from behind.
You are given an N x N matrix. The chips are represented by B and R. You can swap any two adjacent rows of the matrix. Your goal is to have all the black chips in the matrix below or on the main diagonal.
The
first line of input gives the number of cases. The first line of each
test case has one integer, N. Each of the next N lines contains N
characters. Each character is either R or B.
Output
For
each input case print the minimum number of row swaps needed to have
all the black chips in the matrix below or on the main diagonal.
