Given a matrix of distinct elements. The task is to sort the rows of matrix in descending order followed by sorting the columns in ascending order.

Examples

Input: a[3][3] =  {{1, 2, 3},
                              {4, 5, 6}, 
                              {7, 8, 9}};
Output: 
3 2 1
6 5 4
9 8 7

Input: a[3][3] = {{3, 2, 1},
                             {9, 8, 7}, 
                             {6, 5, 4}};
Output: 
3 2 1 
6 5 4 
9 8 7

Approach: 

  1. Traverse all rows one by one and sort rows in descending order using simple array sort.
  2. Convert matrix to its transpose.
  3. Again sort all rows, but this time in ascending order.
  4. Again convert matrix to its transpose.
  5. Print the final matrix.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++




// C++ implementation to sort the rows
// of matrix in descending order followed by
// sorting the columns in ascending order
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
#define MAX_SIZE 10
 
// function to sort each row of the matrix
// according to the order specified by
// descending.
void sortByRow(int mat[][MAX_SIZE], int n,
               bool descending)
{
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        if (descending == true)
            sort(mat[i], mat[i] + n, greater<int>());
        else
            sort(mat[i], mat[i] + n);
    }
}
 
// function to find transpose of the matrix
void transpose(int mat[][MAX_SIZE], int n)
{
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
        for (int j = i + 1; j < n; j++)
 
            // swapping element at index (i, j)
            // by element at index (j, i)
            swap(mat[i][j], mat[j][i]);
}
 
// function to sort the matrix row-wise
// and column-wise
void sortMatRowAndColWise(int mat[][MAX_SIZE],
                          int n)
{
    // sort rows of mat[][] in descending order
    sortByRow(mat, n, true);
 
    // get transpose of mat[][]
    transpose(mat, n);
 
    // again sort rows of mat[][] in ascending
    // order.
    sortByRow(mat, n, false);
 
    // again get transpose of mat[][]
    transpose(mat, n);
}
 
// function to print the matrix
void printMat(int mat[][MAX_SIZE], int n)
{
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        for (int j = 0; j < n; j++)
            cout << mat[i][j] << " ";
        cout << endl;
    }
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    int n = 3;
 
    int mat[n][MAX_SIZE] = { { 3, 2, 1 },
                             { 9, 8, 7 },
                             { 6, 5, 4 } };
 
    cout << "Original Matrix:\n";
    printMat(mat, n);
 
    sortMatRowAndColWise(mat, n);
 
    cout << "\nMatrix After Sorting:\n";
    printMat(mat, n);
 
    return 0;
}

Matrix After Sorting:
3 2 1 
6 5 4 
9 8 7 

Complexity Analysis:

  • Time Complexity: O(N2logN)
  • Auxiliary Space: O(1)
