Given a rectangular grid of dimension 2 x n. We need to find out the maximum sum such that no two chosen numbers are adjacent, vertically, diagonally, or horizontally.
Examples:
Input: 1 4 5 2 0 0 Output: 7 If we start from 1 then we can add only 5 or 0. So max_sum = 6 in this case. If we select 2 then also we can add only 5 or 0. So max_sum = 7 in this case. If we select from 4 or 0 then there is no further elements can be added. So, Max sum is 7. Input: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Output: 24
Approach:
This problem is an extension of Maximum sum such that no two elements are adjacent. The only thing to be changed is to take a maximum element of both rows of a particular column. We traverse column by column and maintain the maximum sum considering two cases.
1) An element of the current column is included. In this case, we take a maximum of two elements in the current column.
2) An element of the current column is excluded (or not included)
Below is the implementation of the above steps.
C++
// C++ program to find maximum sum in a grid such that // no two elements are adjacent. #include<bits/stdc++.h> #define MAX 1000 using namespace std; // Function to find max sum without adjacent int maxSum( int grid[2][MAX], int n) { // Sum including maximum element of first column int incl = max(grid[0][0], grid[1][0]); // Not including first column's element int excl = 0, excl_new; // Traverse for further elements for ( int i = 1; i<n; i++ ) { // Update max_sum on including or excluding // of previous column excl_new = max(excl, incl); // Include current column. Add maximum element // from both row of current column incl = excl + max(grid[0][i], grid[1][i]); // If current column doesn't to be included excl = excl_new; } // Return maximum of excl and incl // As that will be the maximum sum return max(excl, incl); } // Driver code int main() { int grid[2][MAX] = {{ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5}, { 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}}; int n = 5; cout << maxSum(grid, n); return 0; } |

Output:
24
Time Complexity: O(n) where n is number of elements in given array. As, we are using a loop to traverse N times so it will cost us O(N) time
Auxiliary Space: O(1), as we are not using any extra space.
