Maximum Rectangle with Bounded Zeros
Summary
- ā¢Phase 5 / 2D prefix sums, sliding window
- ā¢Reasoning-first competitive programming drill
Problem Description
Given a binary nĆm grid, find the largest area rectangle such that the number of zeros inside the rectangle is at most k.
How to read this problem in plain language:
- This is a Phase 5 reasoning drill focused on 2D prefix sums, sliding window.
- Typical lenses to test first: 2d prefix sum, rectangle, sliding window.
- Constraints reminder: 1 ⤠n, 0 ā¤
Mini examples for mental simulation:
1) Boundary example: Describe why this case is tricky. Explain expected behavior and why naive logic may fail.
2) Adversarial example: Adversarial case where naive greedy/local decision looks correct but fails globally.
Lite-mode writing target:
- Write 1~2 observations that shrink the search space.
- Name one final algorithm and state target complexity explicitly.
- Validate with at least 2 edge cases and one hand simulation.
Constraints
- ā¢1 ⤠n, 0 ā¤
