Set Matrix Zeros Problem Statement
Given an N x M
integer matrix, if an element is 0, set its entire row and column to 0's, and return the matrix. Specifically, if a cell has a value 0 (i.e., matrix[i][j] == 0
), change all cells in the ith row and jth column to 0. Perform modifications in-place.
Input:
The first line of the input contains an integer T
representing the number of test cases. For each test case, the first line contains two space-separated integers N
and M
, denoting the number of rows and columns of the matrix. For the next N
lines, each line contains M
space-separated integers representing the matrix elements.
Output:
For each test case, print the modified matrix. Print the output of each test case in a separate line.
Example:
Input:
1
2 3
7 19 3
4 21 0
Output:
7 19 0
0 0 0
Constraints:
1 ≤ T ≤ 1000
1 ≤ M, N ≤ 1000
Σ(M * N) ≤ 2000000
-231 ≤ matrix[i][j] ≤ 231-1
, for all1 ≤ i ≤ N
and1 ≤ j ≤ M
.- Time Limit: 1 sec
Note:
You are not required to print anything; the function should return the modified matrix as the output.
Follow-up:
Can we optimize space usage better than O(M * N)? Using O(M + N) space improves memory use, but further optimizations can be made to use constant space. Can you achieve this?
