Problem p03263 - Generation 1

Orig Description

Score : 400 points
Problem StatementThere is a grid of square cells with H horizontal rows and W vertical columns. The cell at the i-th row and the j-th column will be denoted as Cell (i, j).
In Cell (i, j), a_{ij} coins are placed.
You can perform the following operation any number of times:
Operation: Choose a cell that was not chosen before and contains one or more coins, then move one of those coins to a vertically or horizontally adjacent cell.
Maximize the number of cells containing an even number of coins.
Constraints
All values in input are integers.
1 \leq H, W \leq 500
0 \leq a_{ij} \leq 9
InputInput is given from Standard Input in the following format:
H W
a_{11} a_{12} ... a_{1W}
a_{21} a_{22} ... a_{2W}
:
a_{H1} a_{H2} ... a_{HW}
OutputPrint a sequence of operations that maximizes the number of cells containing an even number of coins, in the following format:
N
y_1 x_1 y_1' x_1'
y_2 x_2 y_2' x_2'
:
y_N x_N y_N' x_N'
That is, in the first line, print an integer N between 0 and H \times W (inclusive), representing the number of operations.
In the (i+1)-th line (1 \leq i \leq N), print four integers y_i, x_i, y_i' and x_i' (1 \leq y_i, y_i' \leq H and 1 \leq x_i, x_i' \leq W), representing the i-th operation. These four integers represents the operation of moving one of the coins placed in Cell (y_i, x_i) to a vertically or horizontally adjacent cell, (y_i', x_i').
Note that if the specified operation violates the specification in the problem statement or the output format is invalid, it will result in Wrong Answer.

Every cell contains an even number of coins after the following sequence of operations:
Move the coin in Cell (2, 2) to Cell (2, 3).
Move the coin in Cell (1, 1) to Cell (1, 2).
Move one of the coins in Cell (1, 3) to Cell (1, 2).

Extracted Specification

An integer H (1 ≤ H ≤ 500), representing some quantity or size.
An integer W (1 ≤ W ≤ 500), representing some quantity or size.
A grid of integers of size HxW, where each integer is between 0 and 9.

### Example Input:

```
2 3
1 2 3
0 1 1
```

### Function Signature:
Write a function f(H, W, grid) that takes in the input.
def f(H: int, W: int, grid: List[List[int]]):
    '''
    H: an integer
    W: an integer
    grid: a list of lists of integers
    '''

Test Case Generator

Sure, let's create a test case generator for the given problem statement. The generator will create random grids of coins and will output them in the required format. Here is the Python code for the test case generator:

```python
import random

def tcgen():
    # Generate random values for H and W within the given constraints
    H = random.randint(1, 500)
    W = random.randint(1, 500)
    
    # Generate the grid with random coin values
    grid = [[random.randint(0, 9) for _ in range(W)] for _ in range(H)]
    
    return H, W, grid

def print_test_case(H, W, grid):
    print(H, W)
    for row in grid:
        print(' '.join(map(str, row)))

# Example usage:
H, W, grid = tcgen()
print_test_case(H, W, grid)
```

### Explanation

1. **Grid Dimensions**: The dimensions `H` (number of rows) and `W` (number of columns) are randomly generated between 1 and 500.
2. **Grid Values**: Each cell in the grid contains a random number of coins between 0 and 9, inclusive.
3. **Printing**: The function `print_test_case` is used to print the generated test case in the required format.

### Example Generated Test Case

Here is an example of what the output might look like:

```
4 3
2 5 3
0 4 1
9 8 7
2 3 5
```

You can use this generator to create multiple test cases for your problem, ensuring a diverse set of inputs to thoroughly test your solution.

    A = []
    for _ in range(H):
        row = list(map(int, fh.readline().strip().split()))
        A.append(row)
    return H, W, A

# if __name__ == "__main__":
#     input_path = sys.argv[1]
#     with open(input_path, 'r') as fh:
#         H, W, A = extract_arguments(fh)
