Description
You are climbing a staircase with n + 1 steps, numbered from 0 to n.
You are also given a 1-indexed integer array costs of length n, where costs[i] is the cost of step i.
From step i, you can jump only to step i + 1, i + 2, or i + 3. The cost of jumping from step i to step j is defined as: costs[j] + (j - i)2
You start from step 0 with cost = 0.
Return the minimum total cost to reach step n.
