2D Map solution problem

Question

https://code.sololearn.com/ch1jPmjW468A/?ref=app
My solution fails one of the tests but I can't figure out why. Can anyone please suggest what scenario could make it fail? Thank you.

Answer 1

I literally just realized that as well. X2 by definition will always be bigger, made the same silly assumption for Y. Simple IF solved it. Thanks!

Answer 2

In code 1 case error

Answer 4

import numpy as np
map = input().split(',')
matrix = [list(map[i]) for i in range(len(map))]
a = np.array(matrix)
b = np.where(a=='P')
x2, x1, y2, y1 = b[0][1],b[0][0],b[1][1],b[1][0]
dist = abs(x2 - x1) + abs(y2 - y1)
print(dist)

Answer 6

My solution od this task:
import re
maps = list(enumerate(re.sub("," , "", input())))
position = []
coordinates = []
for pos, letter in maps:
if letter == "P":
position.append(pos)
for numbers in position:
x = numbers // 5
y = numbers % 5
coordinate = [x,y]
coordinates.append(coordinate)
steps = abs(coordinates[0][0] - coordinates[1][0]) + abs(coordinates[0][1] - coordinates[1][1])
print(steps)
How can I write it shorter?

Answer 7

coord = input()
char_count = 0
row_count = 1
col_count = 1
p_coord1 = [[],[]]
p_coord2 = [[],[]]
for i in range(len(coord)):
if coord[i].isalpha():
char_count += 1
if coord[i].lower() == "p":
if len(p_coord1[0]) == 0:
p_coord1[1].append(int(row_count))
p_coord1[0].append(int(col_count ))
else:
p_coord2[1].append(int(row_count))
p_coord2[0].append(int(col_count))
row_count += 1
if char_count == 5:
char_count = 0
col_count += 1
row_count = 1
distance_between = ((p_coord1[0][0] - p_coord2[0][0])*-1) + ((p_coord1[1][0] - p_coord2[1][0])*-1)
print(distance_between)
I solved all of the cases but one, what is the problem? I think it should work in all of the cases unless the input format is different. Could you assist me please?

Answer 8

I sorted it that way:
map = input().split(",")
a=[]
b=[]
for x in range(len(map[0])):
for y in range(len(map)):
if map[x][y] == "P":
a.append(x)
b.append(y)
c=(max(a)-min(a))+(max(b)-min(b))
print(c)
