Canadian Computing Competition: 2003 Stage 2, Day 1, Problem 3
Imagine a cube formed from solid interlocking pieces of various shapes.
If the pieces are sufficiently entwined, the only way to separate them
would be to cut some of them. We can ask the question: "is the cube
stable?" That is, is it physically impossible to separate the cube into
or more fragments without deforming or cutting any individual piece?
Your program must answer this question for a variety of such cubes.
The pieces that make up a cube will be specified as follows: divide the
cube into a grid of miniature cubes, each labeled by a
capital letter. Two adjacent (face-sharing) minicubes are joined
together if and only if they are labeled by the same letter. For
instance, the first example cube given consists of
solid pieces.
Input Specification
Your program will be given the specification of up to 10 different
cubes. The first two lines of each specification will consist of the
size of that cube,
, and a blank line. The
remaining
lines will specify the
horizontal layers
of the cube from bottom to top. Each layer specification consists of an
square showing the labels for each minicube on that layer,
followed by a blank line. There will be no spaces in the input. The
input will be terminated by the number
on a line by itself.
Output Specification
For each cube given, in the order specified, print Yes
if that cube is
stable, and No
if it is not.
