Given a matrix of size n*n. Count the frequency of given element k in that matrix. Here base index is 1.
Examples:
Input : n = 4, k = 7 Output : 2 Explanation The matrix will be 2 3 4 5 3 4 5 6 4 5 6 7 5 6 7 8 in the given matrix where M(i, j) = i+j, frequency of 7 is 2 Input : n = 5, k = 4 Output : 3 Explanation The matrix will be 2 3 4 5 6 3 4 5 6 7 4 5 6 7 8 5 6 7 8 9 6 7 8 9 10 Explanation In the given matrix where M(i, j) = i+j, frequency of 4 is 3
First method
1) Construct a matrix of size n*n.
2) Fill the value with M(i, j)=i+j.(recall that here base index is 1)
3) Iteratively traverse the matrix and and count the frequency of given element.
This method is not that much efficient because if the matrix size is very large it’s will result in Time limit exceed.time complexity will be O(n^2).
Efficient method
In this method we avoid creating matrix of size n*n.
for example
if n = 10 the matrix will be
2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
Now, notice how the values are same in the secondary Diagonal, and we can also find a pattern in the count it increases like 1, 2, 3, 4,
here we can see that
if (n+1)>=k then frequency of k is k-1
else frequency will be 2*n+1-k

Output:
Frequency of 7 is 2
