Question

Design a Tic-tac-toe game that is played between two players on a n x n grid.

You may assume the following rules:

1. A move is guaranteed to be valid and is placed on an empty block.
2. Once a winning condition is reached, no more moves is allowed.
3. A player who succeeds in placing n of their marks in a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal row wins the game. 

Example:

Given n = 3, assume that player 1 is "X" and player 2 is "O" in the board.

TicTacToe toe = new TicTacToe(3);

toe.move(0, 0, 1); -> Returns 0 (no one wins)
|X| | |
| | | |    // Player 1 makes a move at (0, 0).
| | | |

toe.move(0, 2, 2); -> Returns 0 (no one wins)
|X| |O|
| | | |    // Player 2 makes a move at (0, 2).
| | | |

toe.move(2, 2, 1); -> Returns 0 (no one wins)
|X| |O|
| | | |    // Player 1 makes a move at (2, 2).
| | |X|

toe.move(1, 1, 2); -> Returns 0 (no one wins)
|X| |O|
| |O| |    // Player 2 makes a move at (1, 1).
| | |X|

toe.move(2, 0, 1); -> Returns 0 (no one wins)
|X| |O|
| |O| |    // Player 1 makes a move at (2, 0).
|X| |X|

toe.move(1, 0, 2); -> Returns 0 (no one wins)
|X| |O|
|O|O| |    // Player 2 makes a move at (1, 0).
|X| |X|

toe.move(2, 1, 1); -> Returns 1 (player 1 wins)
|X| |O|
|O|O| |    // Player 1 makes a move at (2, 1).
|X|X|X|

 

Follow up:
Could you do better than O(n2) per move() operation?

Hint:

1. Could you trade extra space such that move() operation can be done in O(1)?
2. You need two arrays: int rows[n], int cols[n], plus two variables: diagonal, anti_diagonal.

Answer

对于move操作，简单粗暴的方法是遍历整个二维数组，对每一行每一列以及对角线检查。时间，空间复杂度均为O(n^2)

我们可以单独考虑行，列，对角。

对于一行row[i]，如果这一行中有棋手1下过，则+1。如果有棋手2下过，则-1。所以如果这一行全为棋手1下的，row[i]=n。棋手1获胜。

Similar case for col and diagonal, anti diagonal。

Time complexity O(1) Space complexity O(n)
