Square Submatrix Sum Below Target - Google Top Interview Questions
Problem Statement :
You are given a two-dimensional list of non-negative integers matrix and a non-negative integer target. Return the area of the largest square sub-matrix whose sum is less than or equal to target.
If there's no such matrix, return 0.
Constraints
1 ≤ n, m ≤ 250 where n and m are the number of rows and columns in matrix
Example 1

Balanced Brackets
A bracket is considered to be any one of the following characters: (, ), {, }, [, or ]. Two brackets are considered to be a matched pair if the an opening bracket (i.e., (, [, or {) occurs to the left of a closing bracket (i.e., ), ], or }) of the exact same type. There are three types of matched pairs of brackets: [], {}, and (). A matching pair of brackets is not balanced if the set of bra
