CS29003 Lab 3- Graphs Solution

Assignment 3 : Graphs

James is a frog who is currently sitting on a rock. The rocks around him are arranged in a grid of size A × B, with co-ordinates ranging from (0, 0) to (A − 1, B − 1). James is sitting at (Jx, Jy). James can jump on adjacent rocks which are to the North, East, West or South of it’s current rock. Some rocks are unstable and hence he cannot land over those rocks. A fly is sitting on a rock which is at the coordinate (Fx, Fy). James has to reach the rock on which the fly is sitting (it is assured that the rock on which James / fly is sitting is stable), by jumping on only the stable rocks. Is it possible? You are supposed to use graph traversal strategies to solve this problem.
Strategy 1
Use of Queues: You can use queues to travel the rocks in a BFS manner. BFS first explores all the immediate neighbouring rocks of a rock and then continues to explore the immediate neighbours of previously explored rocks. Initially enqueue (Jx, Jy) to an empty queue. As long as queue is not empty, dequeue a rock (x, y) from the queue. Look at all the neighbours of (x, y) and for all the neighbouring rocks which are stable and unvisited, enqueue the rocks to the queue. If the search stops (that is, the queue becomes empty) without ever having (Fx, Fy) at the front of the queue, report failure.
Strategy 2
Use of Stacks: This strategy employs stacks to explore the rocks by going as far as possible jumping on stable rocks using DFS. You are required to use a stack for the corresponding implementation. For each of the stable unvisited neighbour (u, v) of rock (i, j), you have to push the neighbouring rock on the top of the stack. When there are no unvisited and stable neighbouring rocks left, pop (i, j) off the stack. If at any point of the algorithm, you find the fly, i.e., you reach (Fx, Fy), then there exists a path from James to the fly. Print this path by popping the nodes from the stack one by one. If the search completes (that is, the stack becomes empty) without ever having (Fx, Fy) in the stack, then there is no path.
Input
First line of input contains integers A, B denoting the size of the grid and N denoting number of unstable rocks.
Second line contains N integers xi, i ∈ [0, A − 1] denoting the X-coordinates of unstable rocks.
Third line contains N integers yi, i ∈ [0, B − 1] denoting the Y-coordinates of unstable rocks.
Fourth line contains two pairs of integers (Jx, Jy) and (Fx, Fy), representing positions of James and fly, respectively.
0 < A, B, N < 200
0 6 xi, Jx, Fx < A, 0 6 yi, Jy, Fy < B
Part 1
Implementing the data structure to represent the rocks and printing the initial state of the system.
You can use a 2-d static array to store the information about rocks. Then print the structure as shown in the sample output. void printgrid(...)
Inputs: Grid information
Output: Printing the grid in the format as seen in sample input and output.
Note: You don’t need to construct an explicit graph to represent this data.
Part 2
Implementing queue
The queue must be implemented as array of fixed size which is provided as input while creating the array (If you are using an older c compiler, use a fixed size array of hardcoded size QUEUE SIZE MAX).
Keep two indices denoting the start and end of the queue. Implement the following functions:
typedef struct { int x, y;
} POINT ; typedef struct { POINT *Arr ;
int queue_size, start_id, end_id;
} QUEUE ;
void init(QUEUE *qP, int size);//allocates space for queue int isempty(QUEUE qP);//returns 1 if the queue is empty, else 0 void enqueue(QUEUE *qP, POINT p); POINT dequeue(QUEUE *qP);
Part 3
Implement search using Strategy 1 int strategy1(...)
Inputs: State of rocks and position of fly
Output: If any path exists, it prints “Path Exists” and returns 1. If path does not exist, it prints “No Path Exists” and returns 0.
Part 4
Implementing stack
Stack must be implemented using a linked list. Head of linked list points to the top of the stack. For implementing the push operation, you need to insert a new head and to implement the pop operation, you have to delete a head. The following functions must be implemented.
typedef struct { int x, y;
} POINT ; typedef struct { struct POINT head; struct STACK *next;
} STACK ;
void init(STACK *s); //initializes the head and next pointer int isempty(STACK s);//returns 1 if the stack is empty, 0 otherwise void push(STACK *s, POINT p); POINT pop(STACK *s);
Part 5
Implement search using Strategy 2
Use Stack to travel the grid in a DFS fashion void strategy2(...)
Inputs: State of rocks and position of fly
Output: Print a path of points from James to fly as shown in the sample output
Main Function
Sample Input and Output
Test Case 1

Input
4 5 6
0 0 1 2 2 3
0 4 4 1 2 4
0 1 3 3
Output
Grid of Stones is:
-***-
****-
*--**
****-
Path Exists
(0, 1), (0, 2), (0, 3), (1, 3), (2, 3), (3, 3)
Explanation
The printgrid() function first prints ‘Grid of Stones is:’, then it prints the actual grid.
‘-’ indicates an unstable rock and ‘*’ denotes a stable rock. As there exists a path between James and the fly, strategy1() prints ‘Path Exists’. Then strategy2() prints a possible path from (0, 1) to (3, 3).

Test Case 2

Input
2 5 3
0 1 1
2 0 4
0 0 0 4
Output
Grid of Stones is:
**-**
-***-
Path Exists
(0, 0), (0, 1), (1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (0, 3), (0, 4)

Test Case 3

Input
2 2 2
0 1
1 0
0 0 1 1
Output
Grid of Stones is:
*-
-*
No Path Exists
Explanation
There is no path from James to fly, hence the strategy1() prints ‘No Path Exists’ and strategy2() is not called from the main() function.
