Given a matrix of m*n size, the task is to count all the rows in a matrix that are sorted either in strictly increasing order or in strictly decreasing order?

Examples : 

Input : m = 4,  n = 5
        mat[m][n] = 1 2 3 4 5
                    4 3 1 2 6
                    8 7 6 5 4
                    5 7 8 9 10
Output: 3 
Recommended Practice

The idea is simple and involves two traversals of matrix. 

  1. Traverse from left side of the matrix to count all the row which are in strictly increasing order 
  2. Traverse from right side of the matrix to count all the row which are in strictly decreasing order

Below is the implementation of above idea. 

C++




// C++ program to find number of sorted rows
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
#define MAX 100
using namespace std;
 
// Function to count all sorted rows in a matrix
int sortedCount(int mat[][MAX], int r, int c)
{
    int result = 0; // Initialize result
 
    // Start from left side of matrix to
    // count increasing order rows
    for (int i=0; i<r; i++)
    {
        // Check if there is any pair of element
        // that are  not in increasing order.
        int j;
        for (j=0; j<c-1; j++)
            if (mat[i][j+1] <= mat[i][j])
                break;
 
        // If the loop didn't break (All elements
        // of current row were in increasing order)
        if (j == c-1)
            result++;
    }
 
    // Start from right side of matrix to
    // count increasing order rows ( reference
    // to left these are in decreasing order )
    for (int i=0; i<r; i++)
    {
        // Check if there is any pair of element
        // that are  not in decreasing order.
        int j;
        for (j=c-1; j>0; j--)
            if (mat[i][j-1] <= mat[i][j])
                break;
 
        // Note c > 1 condition is required to make
        // sure that a single column row is not counted
        // twice (Note that a single column row is sorted
        // both in increasing and decreasing order)
        if (c > 1 && j == 0)
            result++;
    }
    return result;
}
 
// Driver program to run the case
int main()
{
    int m = 4, n = 5;
    int mat[][MAX] = {{1, 2, 3, 4, 5},
                      {4, 3, 1, 2, 6},
                      {8, 7, 6, 5, 4},
                      {5, 7, 8, 9, 10}};
    cout << sortedCount(mat, m, n);
    return 0;
}

        // Start from left side of matrix to

        for (int i = 0; i < r; i++) {
             
            // Check if there is any pair of element
            // that are not in increasing order.
            int j;
            for (j = 0; j < c - 1; j++)
                if (mat[i][j + 1] <= mat[i][j])
                    break;
 
            // If the loop didn't break (All elements
            // of current row were in increasing order)
            if (j == c - 1)
                result++;
        }

            for (j = c - 1; j > 0; j--)
                if (mat[i][j - 1] <= mat[i][j])
                    break;
 
            // Note c > 1 condition is required to make
            // sure that a single column row is not counted
            // twice (Note that a single column row is sorted

                result++;
        }
        return result;
