Build a Matrix With Conditions

You are given a positive integer k. You are also given:

  • A 2D integer array rowConditions of size n where rowConditions[i] = [abovei, belowi].
  • A 2D integer array colConditions of size m where colConditions[i] = [lefti, righti].

The two arrays contain integers from 1 to k.

You have to build a k x k matrix that contains each of the numbers from 1 to k exactly once. The remaining cells should have the value 0.

The matrix should also satisfy the following conditions:

  • The number abovei should appear in a row that is strictly above the row at which the number belowi appears for all i from 0 to n - 1.
  • The number lefti should appear in a column that is strictly left of the column at which the number righti appears for all i from 0 to m - 1.

Return any matrix that satisfies the conditions. If no answer exists, return an empty matrix.

Example 1
Inputk = 3, rowConditions = [[1,2],[3,2]], colConditions = [[2,1],[3,2]]
Output[[3,0,0],[0,0,1],[0,2,0]]
The returned matrix satisfies all row and column conditions, and multiple correct answers may exist.
Example 2
Inputk = 3, rowConditions = [[1,2],[2,3],[3,1],[2,3]], colConditions = [[2,1]]
Output[]
The row conditions contain a cycle requiring 3 to be both below and above 1, so no matrix can satisfy all conditions.

Constraints

  • 2 <= k <= 400
  • 1 <= rowConditions.length, colConditions.length <= 10^4
  • rowConditions[i].length == colConditions[i].length == 2
  • 1 <= abovei, belowi, lefti, righti <= k
  • abovei != belowi
  • lefti != righti
