One Dimensional Game of Life

Problem code: LIFE

  • Submit
  • All submissions

All submissions for this problem are available.

In Conway's Game of Life, cells in a grid are used to simulate biological cells. Each cell is considered to be either alive or dead. At each step of the simulation each cell's current status and number of living neighbors is used to determine the status of the cell during the following step of the simulation.

In this one-dimensional version, there are N cells numbered 0 through N-1. The number of cells does not change at any point in the simulation. Each cell i is adjacent to cells i-1 and i+1. Here, the indices are taken modulo N meaning cells 0 and N-1 are also adjacent to eachother. At each step of the simulation, cells with exactly one living neighbor change their status (alive cells become dead, dead cells become alive). For example, if we represent dead cells with a '0' and living cells with a '1', consider the state with 8 cells:

01100101
  • Cells 0 and 6 have two living neighbors.
  • Cells 1, 2, 3, and 4 have one living neighbor.
  • Cells 5 and 7 have no living neighbors.
Thus, at the next step of the simulation, the state would be:
00011101

Given some state of the game, your task is to determine the state immediately preceding it. In some cases there may be more than one answer or no possible answer.

Input

Input will begin with an integer T<100, the number of test cases. Each test case consists of a single line, with between 3 and 50 characters, inclusive. Each character will be either '0' or '1'. Each '0' represents a dead cell, and each '1' represents an alive cell.

Output

For each test case, output the state of the game that precedes the given state. If there is no possible solution, print "No solution" (quotes for clarity only). If there are multiple possible solutions, print "Multiple solutions" (quotes for clarity only).

Sample Input

4
00011101
000
000001
11110

Sample Output

01100101
Multiple solutions
No solution
10010

HELP

Program should read from standard input and write to standard output.

After you submit a solution you can see your results by clicking on the [My Submissions] tab on the problem page. Below are the possible results:

  • Accepted Your program ran successfully and gave a correct answer. If there is a score for the problem, this will be displayed in parenthesis next to the checkmark.
  • Time Limit Exceeded Your program was compiled successfully, but it didn't stop before time limit. Try optimizing your approach.
  • Wrong Answer Your program compiled and ran succesfully but the output did not match the expected output.
  • Runtime Error Your code compiled and ran but encountered an error. The most common reasons are using too much memory or dividing by zero. For the specific error codes see the help section.
  • Compilation Error Your code was unable to compile. When you see this icon, click on it for more information.
