Solution: Set Matrix Zeroes
Explore how to solve the problem of setting entire rows and columns to zero within a matrix when any element is zero. Learn an optimized in-place algorithm that uses the matrix's first row and column as markers, avoiding extra space. Understand the steps involved and complexity for an efficient matrix manipulation.
Statement
Given a matrix, mat, if any element within the matrix is zero, set that row and column to zero. The performed operations should be in place, i.e., the given matrix is modified directly without allocating another matrix.
