Given a matrix of order NxN, Find the minimum number of steps to convert the given matrix into the Upper Hessenberg matrix. In each step, the only operation allowed is to decrease or increase any element value by 1.
Examples:

Input : N=3 
1 2 8 
1 3 4 
2 3 4 
Output :
Decrease the element a[2][0] 2 times. 
Now the matrix is upper hessenberg
Input : N=4 
1 2 2 3 
1 3 4 2 
3 3 4 2 
-1 0 1 4 
Output :4  

Approach:  

  • For a matrix to be an Upper Hessenberg matrix all of its elements below the sub-diagonal must be equal to zero, i.e Aij = 0 for all i > j+1..
  • The minimum number of steps required to convert a given matrix in the upper Hessenberg matrix is equal to the sum of the absolute values of all Aij for all i > j + 1.
  • The modulus value of the element is taken into account because both the increase and decrease of the element count as a single step.

Below is the implementation of the above approach: 
 

C++




// C++ implementation of above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
#define N 4
using namespace std;
 
// Function to count steps in
// conversion of matrix into upper
// Hessenberg matrix
int stepsRequired(int arr[][N])
{
    int result = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < N; i++) {
 
        for (int j = 0; j < N; j++) {
 
            // if element is below sub-diagonal
            // add abs(element) into result
            if (i > j + 1)
                result += abs(arr[i][j]);
        }
    }
    return result;
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    int arr[N][N] = { 1, 2, 3, 4,
                      3, 1, 0, 3,
                      3, 2, 1, 3,
                     -3, 4, 2, 1 };
 
    // Function call
    cout << stepsRequired(arr);
    return 0;
}


Java




// Java implementation of above approach
class GFG
{
     
    static int N = 4;
     
    // Function to count steps in
    // conversion of matrix into upper
    // Hessenberg matrix
    static int stepsRequired(int arr[][])
    {
        int result = 0;
        for (int i = 0; i < N; i++)
        {
     
            for (int j = 0; j < N; j++)
            {
     
                // if element is below sub-diagonal
                // add abs(element) into result
                if (i > j + 1)
                    result += Math.abs(arr[i][j]);
            }
        }
        return result;
    }
     
    // Driver code
    public static void main (String[] args)
    {
         
        int arr [][] = new int [][] {{1, 2, 3, 4},
                        {3, 1, 0, 3},
                        {3, 2, 1, 3},
                        {-3, 4, 2, 1 }};
     
        // Function call
        System.out.println(stepsRequired(arr));
    }
}

Output:

Time complexity : O(N*N)
Auxiliary space: O(1) because it is using constant space for variables
