Problem statement

Sup 👋!

This time the agency will give you:

  • An int 2D arr
  • A position within the input 2D arr
  • A so called replacing val

What they want you to do:

Replace the val at the starting position with the provided replacing val. Repeat this process for all positions connected to the starting position via sides with the same val as the starting position.

Function

replacingNum(replacingVal: int, arr: int[][], pos: int[]) → int[][]

Examples

Example 1

replacingVal = 2arr = [[0, 1, 0, 0, 0], [1, 1, 1, 0, 0], [1, 1, 0, 0, 0], [0, 1, 0, 1, 0]]pos = [1, 2]return = [[0, 2, 0, 0, 0], [2, 2, 2, 0, 0], [2, 2, 0, 0, 0], [0, 2, 0, 1, 0]]
