You have a stack of tiles to put onto an array-like playing board. Each tile has a number (always an integer), and the board varies in size (you are given dimensions nRows and nCols). You need to put the high-value tiles on the table in any order.
What you return is an array the same size as the board in which each element is a index to an element of the original vector of tiles.
Examples:
Input tiles = [7 12 8 6 9]
nRows = 2
nCols = 2
Output is [ 1 2
3 5 ]The numbers in the output matrix can appear in any order. What matters is that the indices [1 2 3 5] do appear and that the index 4 does not appear (since tiles(4) is the lowest number).
Input tiles = [12 6 1 20 18 7 4 17]
nRows = 3
nCols = 2
Output is [ 2 6
4 8
1 5 ]
The problem description says the output array elements can be in any order but the test cases seem to prefer some unknown order. Solution 682952 produces an array with same elements as the actual solution but the tests fail. Need a better description of the output desired or a more robust test suite.
Solution 682952 produces correct array, but doesn't pass it to the output.
awesome question
Good Problem :)
This (and others, including Solution 1444556) only pass because of a mismatch between the Test Suite and the Problem Statement.
