Leetcode: Pacific Atlantic Water Flow

Given an m x n matrix of non-negative integers representing the height of each unit cell in a continent, the "Pacific ocean" touches the left and top edges of the matrix and the "Atlantic ocean" touches the right and bottom edges.

Water can only flow in four directions (up, down, left, or right) from a cell to another one with height equal or lower.

Find the list of grid coordinates where water can flow to both the Pacific and Atlantic ocean.

Note:
The order of returned grid coordinates does not matter.
Both m and n are less than 150.
Example:

Given the following 5x5 matrix:

  Pacific ~   ~   ~   ~   ~ 
       ~  1   2   2   3  (5) *
       ~  3   2   3  (4) (4) *
       ~  2   4  (5)  3   1  *
       ~ (6) (7)  1   4   5  *
       ~ (5)  1   1   2   4  *
          *   *   *   *   * Atlantic

Return:

[[0, 4], [1, 3], [1, 4], [2, 2], [3, 0], [3, 1], [4, 0]] (positions with parentheses in above matrix).

这题考点在于需要设置两个visited数组

Two Queue and add all the Pacific border to one queue; Atlantic border to another queue.

Keep a visited matrix for each queue. In the end, add the cell visited by two queue to the result.
BFS: Water flood from ocean to the cell. Since water can only flow from high/equal cell to low cell, add the neighboor cell with height larger or equal to current cell to the queue and mark as visited.（逆流而上）
