See Cisco hiring insights

Write an algorithm which finds out the elements which are largest in a row and smallest in a column in a matrix.

Input

The first line of input consists of two space-separated integers- matrix_row and matrix_col, representing the number of rows in the matrix (N) and the number of columns in the matrix (M), respectively. The next M lines consist of N space-separated integers representing the elements of the matrix.

Output

Print a number which is largest in a row and smallest in a column in the given matrix. If no element is found print '-1'.

Note

Each number in the matrix is a non-negative integer.

Examples
01 · Example 1
matrix = [[1, 2], [3, 4]]
return = 2
The number 2 at index (0,1) is the largest in its row and smallest in its column. So, the output is 2.
Constraints
1 ≤ N, M ≤ 1000
