Given a matrix of N rows and M columns. It is given that M is a multiple of 3. The columns are divided into 3 sections, the first section is from 0 to m/3-1, the second section is from m/3 to 2m/3-1 and the third section is from 2m/3 to m. The task is to choose a single element from each row and, in adjacent rows, we cannot select from the same section. We have to maximize the sum of the elements chosen. 
Examples: 

Input: mat[][] = { 
{1, 3, 5, 2, 4, 6}, 
{6, 4, 5, 1, 3, 2}, 
{1, 3, 5, 2, 4, 6}, 
{6, 4, 5, 1, 3, 2}, 
{6, 4, 5, 1, 3, 2}, 
{1, 3, 5, 2, 4, 6}} 
Output: 35

Input: mat[][] = { 
{1, 2, 3}, 
{3, 2, 1}, 
{5, 4, 2} 
Output: 10  

Approach: The problem can be solved using dynamic programming solution by storing the subproblems and reusing them. Create a dp[][] array where dp[i][0] represents the sum of elements of rows from 0 to i taking elements from section 1. Similarly, for dp[i][1] and dp[i][2]. So, print the max(dp[n – 1][0], dp[n – 1][1], dp[n – 1][2]
Below is the implementation of the above approach: 

C++




// C++ program for the above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
const int n = 6, m = 6;
 
// Function to find the maximum value
void maxSum(long arr[n][m])
{
    // Dp table
    long dp[n + 1][3] = { 0 };
 
    // Fill the dp in bottom
    // up manner
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
 
        // Maximum of the three sections
        long m1 = 0, m2 = 0, m3 = 0;
 
        for (int j = 0; j < m; j++) {
 
            // Maximum of the first section
            if ((j / (m / 3)) == 0) {
                m1 = max(m1, arr[i][j]);
            }
 
            // Maximum of the second section
            else if ((j / (m / 3)) == 1) {
                m2 = max(m2, arr[i][j]);
            }
 
            // Maximum of the third section
            else if ((j / (m / 3)) == 2) {
                m3 = max(m3, arr[i][j]);
            }
        }
 
        // If we choose element from section 1,
        // we cannot have selection from same section
        // in adjacent rows
        dp[i + 1][0] = max(dp[i][1], dp[i][2]) + m1;
        dp[i + 1][1] = max(dp[i][0], dp[i][2]) + m2;
        dp[i + 1][2] = max(dp[i][1], dp[i][0]) + m3;
    }
 
    // Print the maximum sum
    cout << max(max(dp[n][0], dp[n][1]), dp[n][2]) << '\n';
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
 
    long arr[n][m] = { { 1, 3, 5, 2, 4, 6 },
                       { 6, 4, 5, 1, 3, 2 },
                       { 1, 3, 5, 2, 4, 6 },
                       { 6, 4, 5, 1, 3, 2 },
                       { 6, 4, 5, 1, 3, 2 },
                       { 1, 3, 5, 2, 4, 6 } };
 
    maxSum(arr);
 
    return 0;
}

    // Fill the dp in bottom

    {
 
        // Maximum of the three sections

Output

35

Time Complexity: O(n*m), Where n and m are the numbers of rows and number columns in the matrix.
Auxiliary Space: O(n), as we are using extra space for the dp matrix.
