C Exercises: Return only the unique rows from a given binary matrix
C Array: Exercise-72 with Solution
Write a program in C to return only the unique rows from a given binary matrix.
Sample Solution:
C Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdbool.h>
#define R 4
#define C 5
typedef struct Node
{
bool chkEndOfCol;
struct Node *child[2];
} myNode;
myNode* newNode()
{
myNode* temp = (myNode *)malloc( sizeof( myNode ) );
temp->chkEndOfCol = 0;
temp->child[0] = temp->child[1] = NULL;
return temp;
}
bool insert( myNode** root, int (*arr1)[C], int r, int c )
{
if ( *root == NULL )
*root = newNode();
if ( c < C )
return insert ( &( (*root)->child[ arr1[r][c] ] ), arr1, r, c+1 );
else
{
if ( !( (*root)->chkEndOfCol ) )
return (*root)->chkEndOfCol = 1;
return 0;
}
}
void printRow( int (*arr1)[C], int r )
{
int i;
for( i = 0; i < C; ++i )
printf( "%d ", arr1[r][i] );
printf("\n");
}
void findUniqueRows( int (*arr1)[C] )
{
myNode* root = NULL;
int i;
printf("The unique rows of the given array are : \n");
for ( i = 0; i < R; ++i )
if ( insert(&root, arr1, i, 0) )
printRow( arr1, i );
}
int main()
{
int arr1[R][C] =
{{0, 1, 0, 0, 1},
{1, 0, 1, 1, 0},
{0, 1, 0, 0, 1},
{1, 0, 1, 0, 0}
};
int i,j;
//------------- print original array ------------------
printf("The given array is : \n");
for(i = 0; i < R; i++)
{
for (j=0;j<C;j++)
{
printf("%d ", arr1[i][j]);
}
printf("\n");
}
//------------------------------------------------------
findUniqueRows( arr1 );
return 0;
}
Sample Output:
The given array is : 0 1 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 0 1 0 0 The unique rows of the given array are : 0 1 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 1 0 1 0 0
