MAKEMAZE - VALIDATE THE MAZE |
There are many algorithms to generate maze. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maze_generation_algorithm). After generating the maze we’ve to validate whether it’s a valid maze or not. A valid maze has exactly one entry point and exactly one exit point (exactly 2 openings in the edges) and there must be at least one path from the entry point to exit point.
Given a maze, just find whether the maze is "valid" or "invalid".
Input
The first line consists of an integer t, the number of test cases. Then for each test case, the first line consists of two integers m and n, the number of rows and columns in the maze. Then contains the description of the matrix M of order mxn. M[i][j]=# represents a wall and M[i][j]='.' represents a space.
Output
For each test case find whether the maze is "valid" or "invalid".
Constraints
1<=t<=10000
1<=m<=20
1<=n<=20
Example
Input: 6 4 4 #### #... #.## #.## 5 5 #.### #..## ##..# #.#.# ###.# 1 1 . 5 1 # # . . # 2 2 #. .# 3 4 #..# #.## #.## Output: valid valid invalid valid invalid invalid

After lot of silly mistakes got it! |

More than two opening even if they are not connected will cause invalid: ##.# .#.# ##.# ##.# is invalid. |

sir, its valid cause you have exactly one entry point and exactly one exit point and there is a path between this tow points |

For these getting WA read the problem carefully and focus on the two conditions necessary for a valid maze.Any graph traversal, algorithm,preferably bfs should work. Last edit: 2016-01-15 19:08:58 |
