Problems 1: Spiral matrix - Advanced Source of the problem: Here (not in English)
Spiral matrix is formed by filling number 1 in 1st row 1st column, after that, filling with increasing number by clockwise, example:
1 2 3 4 5
16 17 18 19 6
15 24 25 20 7
14 23 22 21 8
13 12 11 10 9
Write a program that inform the value of cell (x, y) of a square spiral matrix sized n x n.
Input: First row record the number of tests, not greater than 100. Each test record in one row, include tree values n x y (1 ≤ n, x, y ≤ 100)
Output: With each test, print out the value of the cell at x row y column in n x n spiral matrix.
Example:
Input: Output:
2 18
5 2 3 2
4 1 2
Solution:
Let's take the given example of the spiral matrix above to explain my idea.
I start the loop, the loop do these follow things:
First I devide the ring into 4 equally group and filling increasing number by clockwise:
1 2 3 4 | 5
--
16 .. .. .. 6
15 .. .. .. 7
14 .. .. .. 8
--
13| 12 11 10 9
After that, my ring will shrink, and repeat steps of the previous ring, look like this:
.. .. .. .. ..
.. 17 18 |19 ..
--
.. 24 .. 20 ..
--
.. 23| 22 21 ..
.. .. .. .. ..
Because I set the loop to just repeat n/2 times, so the loop will stop here, but with n is odd, there always still 1 cell left, so after stop the loop, I will have to check if n is odd, then the cell at n/2 row and n/2 column will be set to value n^2.
Implementation:
#include<stdio.h>
#define fi "d:\\program\\text\\ip_spoj_mtx.txt" //Input
#define fo "d:\\program\\text\\op_spoj_mtx.txt" //Output
#define ma 100 //maximum size of each array
int s,n[ma],x[ma],y[ma],a[ma][ma],r[ma]; //s: the number of tests; n,x,y: self-explanatory; a: contains temporay spiral matrix; r: the results
void Input(void);
void Process(void);
void Output(void);
int main(void) {
Input();
Process();
Output();
printf("Done!\n");
return 0;
}
void Input(void) {

}

for(k=0;k<s;k++) {
j=0; //general border of each group

Problem 2: Working with singly linked list
I think my code is self-explanatory, if you are beginner to coding, I really recommend you to try reading and understanding the code by yourself, if you have any question or opinion, please let me know.
Another way, you should paste it in a C compiler to see it works.
Implementation:
#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#define ma 100
struct Node {
int data;
struct Node *next;
};
struct Node *head;
void Prt(void); //Print all node in the list.
void Inl(int); //Insert a node at the end of the list.
void Ins(int,int); //Insert a node of value x, at the n_th position.
void Del(int); //Delete a node at n_th option position.
void Mod(int,int); //Modify value of a node to value x, at n_th position.
void Sch(int); //Search for positions of any node that matching the key.
void Rev(void); //Reverse the list.
void Clr(void); //Clear the list.
int main(void) {
head=NULL;
int n,k,x,c;
do {
k=-1;
while(!(k==0||k==1||k==2||k==3||k==4||k==5||k==6||k==7)) {
system("cls"); //I know this not standard but I too lazy too write out a clrscr function, so if you want more standard just search on Internet for the standard one
