Initialize the first row and column, then add each cell // cost to the cheaper predecessor. // // COMPLEXITY // O(rows * cols) time, O(cols) auxiliary space. // // CONTRACT // rows,cols>=1. grid is a flattened matrix of nonnegative costs. All sums must fit signed // 32-bit. // Public APIs infer array lengths except in C, which accepts pointer/length pairs. Vertex // counts and matrix dimensions remain explicit. Arrays must contain signed 32-bit integers. // Sorted order, correct tree topology, and caller-owned data-structure invariants are // preconditions; checking them on every query would change query complexity. // Scalar and shape checks are included. Value-range checks are included where needed to // prevent invalid indexing or nontermination. Allocation sizes are capped at 4,000,000 // workspace entries. Arithmetic outside Python raises an error on 32-bit overflow; Python // uses arbitrary precision. Native allocation failures propagate. In-place outputs may be // partly updated after arithmetic failure. These are single-threaded, in-memory // implementations. // // LANGUAGE DETAILS // PHP 8.1+ on a 64-bit runtime: packed arrays, strict scalar types, read-only inputs by // value using copy-on-write, references only for outputs, and checked 32-bit arithmetic. // Invalid input and overflow throw exceptions. PHP arrays have higher overhead than native // packed buffers in C/Java. // // EXAMPLE // Expected return: 7. // Run: php example.php // Tests for this exact source artifact run before publication. The accompanying source // archive includes unit cases, runtime results, and source hashes. function alg_require(bool $valid): void { if (!$valid) throw new InvalidArgumentException("invalid algorithm input"); } function alg_checked(int|float $v): int { if ($v < -2147483648 || $v > 2147483647 || floor($v) != $v) throw new OverflowException("32-bit result overflow"); return (int)$v; } function alg_add(int $a,int $b): int { return alg_checked($a+$b); } function alg_sub(int $a,int $b): int { return alg_checked($a-$b); } function alg_mul(int $a,int $b): int { return alg_checked($a*$b); } function alg_size(int $n): int { alg_require($n>=0 && $n<=4000000); return $n; } function minimum_path_sum(array $grid, int $rows, int $cols): int { alg_require(array_is_list($grid)); alg_require((count($grid) == alg_mul($rows, $cols))); alg_require((($rows >= 1) && ($cols >= 1) && ($rows <= 1000000) && ($cols <= 1000000))); $dp = array_fill(0, alg_size($cols), 0); $r = 0; $c = 0; while (($r < $rows)) { $c = 0; while (($c < $cols)) { if ((($r == 0) && ($c == 0))) { $dp[$c] = $grid[0]; } else { if (($r == 0)) { $dp[$c] = alg_add($dp[alg_sub($c, 1)], $grid[$c]); } else { if (($c == 0)) { $dp[$c] = alg_add($dp[$c], $grid[alg_mul($r, $cols)]); } else { $dp[$c] = alg_add(min($dp[$c], $dp[alg_sub($c, 1)]), $grid[alg_add(alg_mul($r, $cols), $c)]); } } } $c = alg_add($c, 1); } $r = alg_add($r, 1); } return $dp[alg_sub($cols, 1)]; } $grid = [1, 3, 1, 1, 5, 1, 4, 2, 1]; $rows = 3; $cols = 3; $result = minimum_path_sum($grid, $rows, $cols); echo $result, PHP_EOL; |
