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

It's been the edited version of my question. I don't need any help with this task anymore. Finally, I was able to fix it and my solution passed.

pqv907 the test case you provied will output invalid

What am I doing wrong? Like most of the users I'm also getting WA on 5th testcase.
My approach:
1: count all the entry/exit points if it is more than 2 -> invalid
else
call bfs with one of those points and see if other point can be reached.

any suggestions?

i'm awesome :D: 2020-05-30 20:36:20

My 150th :D

If you get WA at 5th TC.
Try
1
3 1

or
1
1 3
