I think this problem can't be a cycle...but why??? Can someone give me a proof please

Check the first sample..
Its f0(g). We can find f1(g) easily.
f1(g) = f( f0(g) )
This way we can construct all.
So,
Code: Select all
f0(g) =
111
100
001
f1(g) =
001
100
110
f2(g) =
110
101
011
f3(g) =
010
101
010
f4(g) =
000
000
000
f5(g) =
000
000
000
...
f
I(g) = f4(g). Here 'I' stands for infinity. So, 3 is the highest index for which the result is finite. So, the result is 3. Hope it helps.

Thank you!! I think this problem will always convergence to the zero matrix (3x3) for every grid, but i can't prove this. Actually my AC program shows the
feature.

Hey all, having trouble getting WA and tried some rudimentary test cases. Formatting looks good. Any hints?
DELETED - missed the new line at the very end =/

Print a newline char at the end of the last line.

Jan,
Thanks for the explanation. That really helped see things in perspective.
Also, I've uploaded input I found useful during testing / debugging on uDebug.
