Task:
Given a list of days when you need to travel. Each day is integer from 1 to 365.
You are able to use tickets for 1 day, 7 days and 30 days.
Each ticket has a cost.

Find the minimum cost you need to travel every day in the given list of days.

Implementation notes:
implementation Dynamic Programming up bottom approach.

Runtime complexity: O(n)

The implementation was tested on the
leetcode: https://leetcode.com/problems/minimum-cost-for-tickets/
