 Problem:    Compare Version Numbers
 Difficulty: Easy
 Source:     https://oj.leetcode.com/problems/compare-version-numbers/
 Notes:
 Compare two version numbers version1 and version1.
 If version1 > version2 return 1, if version1 < version2 return -1, otherwise return 0.

 You may assume that the version strings are non-empty and contain only digits and the . character.
 The . character does not represent a decimal point and is used to separate number sequences.
 For instance, 2.5 is not "two and a half" or "half way to version three", it is the fifth second-level revision of the second first-level revision.

 Here is an example of version numbers ordering:

 0.1 < 1.1 < 1.2 < 13.37
