    Table elements compare...

    Hey! I am happy i joined your great community


    I have a problem, and hope someone can help me.

    I have a table NxM dimension - A.

    I have to find in A dominate lines, otherwords - I have to find in A any line that has each element smaller than for ex the elements from [k] line.

    I mean Line [i] is dominated if there is line [k] and for any [j] we have A[i][j]<A[k][j]. When i find dominated lines- i have to delete them from A.

    for ex:
    A=

    1 | 1 5 6 7|
    2 | 2 1 9 0|
    3 | 8 3 1 4|
    4 | 7 1 0 2|

    here line [4] is smaller than line [3],
    line [4] is dominated , and i delete it.

    I need your help in composing an algorithm.
    Going to write it in C++.
    Hope that somebody will propose an algorithm.
    I became mad....can't compose...

    Well a function to compare rows i and j of a given matrix would be a useful start.

    Like
    bool result = isDominant( A, i, j );

    A function which returns true or false, depending on the rule you've outlined.
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
