BYU15W_3 - Largest Product |
Your task is to take an N-by-N grid and determine the greatest product of any X adjacent numbers in the same direction (up, down, left, right, or diagonally – think Connect 4).
Example
In this example, N = 4 and X = 4.
99 | 1 | 3 | 4 |
1 | 90 | 2 | 4 |
2 | 3 | 80 | 2 |
3 | 4 | 2 | 85 |
The largest 4-term product in this 4 × 4 grid is 99 * 90 * 80 * 85 = 60588000.
Input
The first line contains two positive integers N and X. N is the size of the grid and X is the number of terms to be multiplied together. The next N lines each contain N whitespace-separated non-negative integers each less than 100.
Constraints
1 <= X <= N <= 10
Output
Output a single line containing the largest X-term product in the grid.
Example
Input: 4 4 99 1 3 4 1 90 2 4 2 3 80 2 3 4 2 85 Output: 60588000
Input: 5 3 1 2 3 4 5 6 5 4 3 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 7 6 5 4 5 6 7 8 9 Output: 504

If you don't know what is Connect 4, it's a game here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connect_Four |
