Counting word occurrences in grid

I need to count how many times a given word appears in a grid. The word can appear in any of 8 possible directions: horizontally, vertically, and diagonally — forward and reverse. Palindromic words should be counted twice, once for each direction they are found in. I'll start by focusing on the task of scanning the grid in multiple directions to find each occurrence of the word. This includes considering all possible directions and ensuring I account for the grid's boundaries properly.

Handling palindromic words in grid

I think I need to handle palindromic words carefully, since they can appear both ways in a direction (e.g., 'ABA' left-to-right and right-to-left). The task specifies that I should count these as separate occurrences, even if the positions are the same, because they are now considered distinct. So, I'll ensure I'm scanning both the word and its reverse across all 8 directions, and if the word is palindromic, I'll simply count both directions without needing any extra adjustments.

Below is a straightforward-but-efficient Java solution that counts every occurrence of the target word in all 8 possible directions (horizontal, vertical, and the two diagonals, both forwards and backwards).
It simply walks the grid from every starting cell whose first character matches the first character of the word.

java
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;

public class Main {

    // 8 direction unit-steps:  ↖  ↑  ↗   ←   →  ↙  ↓  ↘
    private static final int[] DX = {-1, -1, -1,  0,  0, 1, 1, 1};
    private static final int[] DY = {-1,  0,  1, -1,  1,-1, 0, 1};

    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));

        int n = Integer.parseInt(br.readLine().trim());
        char[][] grid = new char[n][n];

        for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
            String line = br.readLine().trim();
            // remove any spaces just in case (defensive)
            line = line.replaceAll("\\s+", "");
            grid[i] = line.toCharArray();
        }

        String word = br.readLine().trim();
        int wordLen = word.length();

        int total = 0;
        for (int r = 0; r < n; r++) {
            for (int c = 0; c < n; c++) {
                if (grid[r][c] != word.charAt(0)) continue;

                // try every direction
                for (int dir = 0; dir < 8; dir++) {
                    int x = r, y = c;
                    int k;
                    for (k = 1; k < wordLen; k++) {
                        x += DX[dir];
                        y += DY[dir];
                        if (x < 0 || y < 0 || x >= n || y >= n) break;
                        if (grid[x][y] != word.charAt(k)) break;
                    }
                    if (k == wordLen) {          // full match
                        total++;
                    }
                }
            }
        }

        System.out.println(total);
    }
}

How it works

  1. Read input: size N, the N×N grid, then the word to search.
  2. For every grid cell that matches the word’s first character, attempt to extend the match in each of the 8 compass directions (DX, DY arrays).
  3. Bounds & character checks stop a direction early if we run off the board or see a mismatch.
  4. If we advance wordLen steps successfully, that’s one occurrence.
    Palindromic words are naturally counted twice (once for each opposite direction) because we treat every direction independently.
  5. Output the accumulated count.

This runs in O(N² * 8 * L) time (L = word length) with O(1) extra space—fast enough for typical contest constraints.

Computing 4-direction counts

I might have missed something in the diagonal count. Maybe they only consider 4 directions (horizontal and vertical), but diagonals could be relevant too — or maybe they’re not counting those properly. I’ll focus on calculating counts in these 4 directions alone, removing any diagonals. There's also a possibility I misunderstood how characters are treated in rows when spaces are involved. I'll double-check all paths and possible sequences in the horizontal and vertical directions to be sure.

Exploring word paths

I’m considering a few possibilities for "cat" paths in the grid. We checked diagonals and rows, such as from (0,0)->(1,1)->(2,2), and we also found paths from (1,0) and (2,0). There might be some misinterpretation, especially about row order or character splitting maybe due to case sensitivity or row spacing. I’ll test if any case or spacing issues are affecting how paths are being counted. Let’s double-check the grid with an eye on letter orientation and row parsing.

Analyzing missed paths

It seems like the algorithm might be missing some diagonal paths or considering reversals of "cat" as separate occurrences. We’ve reviewed potential cases like checking paths that could be reversed, such as from the bottom-up or starting positions. We also considered edge cases like possibly counting wrap-arounds or continuous paths with adjacent letters. The puzzle's true nature, requiring only straight-line search, suggests that the counting method might be correct after all but needs a tweak to account for any missed directions (vertical down-left or up-right).

उत्तर

Let’s walk through that 3 × 3 example by hand to see every place c a t really shows up.

text
Row / Col indices
      0   1   2
    +---+---+---+
 0  | c | t | t |
    +---+---+---+
 1  | c | a | t |
    +---+---+---+
 2  | c | t | t |
    +---+---+---+

All straight-line paths of length 3 that begin with c

start → directioncells visitedletters
(0,0) → down-right(0,0) → (1,1) → (2,2)c a t ✅
(1,0) → right(1,0) → (1,1) → (1,2)c a t ✅
(2,0) → up-right(2,0) → (1,1) → (0,2)c a t ✅

No other direction from any c completes the word without leaving the grid or mismatching a letter.
So there are exactly 3 occurrences.

Why the official answer can’t be 4
Unless the grid (or the counting rule) is different from what you typed, there just isn’t a fourth straight-line “cat.”

  • Counting the reverse word t a c separately would bring the total to 6, not 4.
  • Counting a palindrome twice doesn’t apply here because cat is not a palindrome.

What to check

  1. Grid spelling: Make sure the three grid rows really are ctt, cat, ctt.
  2. Any hidden spaces / carriage returns: Extra whitespace can shift letters when the input is read.
    My sample code trims each line (line = line.trim().replaceAll("\\s+","")) to guard against this; if you removed that line, stray spaces could change the grid.
  3. Problem statement revision: Occasionally online test platforms update expected answers; verify whether the latest PDF/example shows something like 
    text
    3
ctt
cat
ctt
cat
    (If the word were ctt, the count is 4.)

If you must match a contested “4” answer

You’ll need to find the extra occurrence the judge is counting – usually that means the grid or counting rule is not what we assumed. Double-check the raw sample input exactly as the judge feeds it (including case and spaces). Once you spot the difference, the same core algorithm will still work after you read the data correctly.
