You are given an n x n
integer matrix
. You can do the following operation any number of times:
- Choose any two adjacent elements of
matrix
and multiply each of them by-1
.
Two elements are considered adjacent if and only if they share a border.
Your goal is to maximize the summation of the matrix’s elements. Return the maximum sum of the matrix’s elements using the operation mentioned above.
Example 1:
Input: matrix = [[1,-1],[-1,1]] Output: 4 Explanation: We can follow the following steps to reach sum equals 4: - Multiply the 2 elements in the first row by -1. - Multiply the 2 elements in the first column by -1.
Example 2:
Input: matrix = [[1,2,3],[-1,-2,-3],[1,2,3]] Output: 16 Explanation: We can follow the following step to reach sum equals 16: - Multiply the 2 last elements in the second row by -1.
Constraints:
n == matrix.length == matrix[i].length
2 <= n <= 250
-105 <= matrix[i][j] <= 105
Solution: Math
Count the number of negative numbers.
1. Even negatives, we can always flip all the negatives to positives. ans = sum(abs(matrix)).
2. Odd negatives, there will be one negative left, we found the smallest abs(element) and let it become negative. ans = sum(abs(matrix))) – 2 * min(abs(matrix))
Time complexity: O(n2)
Space complexity: O(1)
