72\. Edit Distance

Hard

Given two strings `word1` and `word2`, return _the minimum number of operations required to convert `word1` to `word2`_.

You have the following three operations permitted on a word:

*   Insert a character
*   Delete a character
*   Replace a character

**Example 1:**

**Input:** word1 = "horse", word2 = "ros"

**Output:** 3

**Explanation:** 

horse -> rorse (replace 'h' with 'r') 

rorse -> rose (remove 'r') 

rose -> ros (remove 'e')

**Example 2:**

**Input:** word1 = "intention", word2 = "execution"

**Output:** 5

**Explanation:** 

intention -> inention (remove 't') 

inention -> enention (replace 'i' with 'e') 

enention -> exention (replace 'n' with 'x') 

exention -> exection (replace 'n' with 'c') 

exection -> execution (insert 'u')

**Constraints:**

*   `0 <= word1.length, word2.length <= 500`
*   `word1` and `word2` consist of lowercase English letters.
