:content: "By starting at the top of the triangle below and moving to adjacent numbers
on the row below, the maximum total from top to bottom is 23.\n\n**3** \n**7**
4 \n2 **4** 6 \n8 5 **9** 3\n\nThat is, 3 + 7 + 4 + 9 = 23.\n\nFind the maximum
total from top to bottom of the triangle below:\n\n75 \n95 64 \n17 47 82 \n18
35 87 10 \n20 04 82 47 65 \n19 01 23 75 03 34 \n88 02 77 73 07 63 67 \n99 65

16384 routes, it is possible to solve this problem by trying every route. However,
[Problem 67](problem=67), is the same challenge with a triangle containing one-hundred
rows; it cannot be solved by brute force, and requires a clever method! ;o)\n\n"
