Problem statement

There are n people labeled from 1 through n. Each row trust[i] = [a, b] means that person a trusts person b.

A person is the town judge when both conditions hold:

  • The person trusts nobody.
  • Every other person trusts that person.

Return the judge's label. Return -1 when no person satisfies both conditions. When n = 1 and there are no trust relationships, person 1 is the judge.
