Ya sorry abt that my algo is wrong!

@Dumanshu:
i know you have given a good explanation but i have never done
parallel computing..
could you illustrate a bit more especially about the n+1th process..

@Venkat. That algorithm doesnt work actually.Try for 9,8,1. At 1 , it
becomes 0.

[algogeeks] Re: is it possible to detect the first repeating number in a 2-D array (n X n) in O(n) time ?

2011-07-19 Thread ((** VICKY **))
doing xor of all elements in array[][] should work. you start from a[0]
[0] to a[0][n] then a[1][0] .. when the xor value bcomz 0 then the
corresponding value in arr[i][j] is the first repeated element in the
array. though this code will have two loops and seem as O(n2) it will
terminate once it finds the first repeated no. hope my algo works.
comments plz

You have to use parallel computing to find the first repeating number
in O(n) time if theres nothing special about the 2-D array
Use n +1 processes, n processes to scan each row and 1 process to scan
the rows last and next rows first element to check for repetition.
Each process uses hash table to find the first non repeating number.
When we have the results from all the processes, do O(n) scanning, and
output the result for minimum row which wud be the first repetition.
