Description


You are given two integers m and n, which represent the dimensions of a matrix.

You are also given the head of a linked list of integers.

Generate an m x n matrix that contains the integers in the linked list presented in spiral order (clockwise), starting from the top-left of the matrix. If there are remaining empty spaces, fill them with -1.

Return the generated matrix.

 

Example 1:

Input: m = 3, n = 5, head = [3,0,2,6,8,1,7,9,4,2,5,5,0]
Output: [[3,0,2,6,8],[5,0,-1,-1,1],[5,2,4,9,7]]
Explanation: The diagram above shows how the values are printed in the matrix.
Note that the remaining spaces in the matrix are filled with -1.

Example 2:

Input: m = 1, n = 4, head = [0,1,2]
Output: [[0,1,2,-1]]
Explanation: The diagram above shows how the values are printed from left to right in the matrix.
The last space in the matrix is set to -1.

 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= m, n <= 105
  • 1 <= m * n <= 105
  • The number of nodes in the list is in the range [1, m * n].
  • 0 <= Node.val <= 1000

Solution


Python3

# Definition for singly-linked list.
# class ListNode:
#     def __init__(self, val=0, next=None):
#         self.val = val
#         self.next = next
class Solution:
    def spiralMatrix(self, m: int, n: int, head: Optional[ListNode]) -> List[List[int]]:
        res = [[-1] * n for _ in range(m)]
        i = j = 0
        D = [(0, 1), (1, 0), (0, -1), (-1, 0)]
        d = 0
 
        while head:
            res[i][j] = head.val
            i += D[d][0]
            j += D[d][1]
            
            if i == m or j == n or i == -1 or j == -1 or res[i][j] != -1:
                i -= D[d][0]
                j -= D[d][1]
 
                d = (d + 1) % 4
 
                i += D[d][0]
                j += D[d][1]
            
            head = head.next
 
        return res
