Given an array arr[] of n integers, construct a Product Array prod[] (of same size) such that prod[i] is equal to the product of all the elements of arr[] except arr[i]. Solve it without division operator and in O(n).
Example:
arr[] = {10, 3, 5, 6, 2}
prod[] = {180, 600, 360, 300, 900}
arr[] = {10, 3, 5, 6, 2}
prod[] = {180, 600, 360, 300, 900}
Algorithm:
1) Construct a temporary array left[] such that left[i] contains product of all elements on left of arr[i] excluding arr[i].
2) Construct another temporary array right[] such that right[i] contains product of all elements on on right of arr[i] excluding arr[i].
3) To get prod[], multiply left[] and right[].
1) Construct a temporary array left[] such that left[i] contains product of all elements on left of arr[i] excluding arr[i].
2) Construct another temporary array right[] such that right[i] contains product of all elements on on right of arr[i] excluding arr[i].
3) To get prod[], multiply left[] and right[].
Implementation:
#include<stdio.h>#include<stdlib.h>/* Function to print product array for a given array arr[] of size n */void productArray(int arr[], int n){ /* Allocate memory for temporary arrays left[] and right[] */ int *left = (int *)malloc(sizeof(int)*n); int *right = (int *)malloc(sizeof(int)*n); /* Allocate memory for the product array */ int *prod = (int *)malloc(sizeof(int)*n); int i, j; /* Left most element of left array is always 1 */ left[0] = 1; /* Rightmost most element of right array is always 1 */ right[n-1] = 1; /* Construct the left array */ for(i = 1; i < n; i++) left[i] = arr[i-1]*left[i-1]; /* Construct the right array */ for(j = n-2; j >=0; j--) right[j] = arr[j+1]*right[j+1]; /* Construct the product array using left[] and right[] */ for (i=0; i<n; i++) prod[i] = left[i] * right[i]; /* print the constructed prod array */ for (i=0; i<n; i++) printf("%d ", prod[i]); return;}/* Driver program to test above functions */int main(){ int arr[] = {10, 3, 5, 6, 2}; int n = sizeof(arr)/sizeof(arr[0]); printf("The product array is: \n"); productArray(arr, n); getchar();} |

The above method can be optimized to work in space complexity O(1). Thanks to Dileep for suggesting the below solution.
void productArray(int arr[], int n){ int i, temp = 1; /* Allocate memory for the product array */ int *prod = (int *)malloc(sizeof(int)*n); /* Initialize the product array as 1 */ memset(prod, 1, n); /* In this loop, temp variable contains product of elements on left side excluding arr[i] */ for(i=0; i<n; i++) { prod[i] = temp; temp *= arr[i]; } /* Initialize temp to 1 for product on right side */ temp = 1; /* In this loop, temp variable contains product of elements on right side excluding arr[i] */ for(i= n-1; i>=0; i--) { prod[i] *= temp; temp *= arr[i]; } /* print the constructed prod array */ for (i=0; i<n; i++) printf("%d ", prod[i]); return;} |
