HackerEarth Replace and maximize problem solution

YASH PAL, 31 July 2024
In this HackerEarth Replace and maximize problem solution You are given a square grid consisting of H rows and columns respectively. Each of the cells in the grid consists of either 0, 1, or 2. You are required to make the grid binary which means that the cell value should be 1 or 2. To do this task, you must replace each 2 and you can replace any 2 by either 0 or 1.
Grid value: It is the sum of XOR between all pairs of cells such that they share the side.
Your task is to replace each 2 by 1 or 0 in such a way that the grid value is maximized.
