How to efficiently find a target element in a sorted matrix of distinct ints, in Java?

/*
	This is an implementation that demonstrates
	how to efficiently find a target element
	within a sorted matrix of distinct ints.
	Each row of the matrix is sorted. Moreover, 
	each column is sorted 
	
	Let n be the number of rows and m be the number
	of columns.

	Time complexity: O(n+m) 
	Space complexity: O(1)
