Chapter Overview
Explore multi-dimensional arrays and their traversal methods in this lesson. Understand how to manipulate 2-D arrays to solve problems like sorting large integers and determining paths for escape scenarios. Gain practical knowledge applicable to matrix operations and complex algorithmic challenges.
We'll cover the following...
“Truth is multi-dimensional; it depends on the perspective you view from.”
In this chapter, we will cover multi-dimensional arrays and learn to solve various problems that use multi-dimensional arrays.
We’ll be looking at different ways 2-D arrays can be traversed and then apply these different traversal techniques to solve different problems such as sorting large integers (radix sort), creating rotating spirals, etc.
Another very interesting problem is the prison break problem, where we find whether a prisoner can escape their prison (a 2-D space using a multi-dimensional array).
So let’s begin!
