Find the maximum total from top to bottom in triangle.txt

a 15K text file containing a triangle with one-hundred rows.
NOTE: This is a much more difficult version of Problem 18.
It is not possible to try every route to solve this problem,
as there are 299 altogether! If you could check one trillion (1012)
routes every second it would take over twenty billion years
to check them all. There is an efficient algorithm to solve it. ;o)
