๐ Quick Study Guide
- ๐ข Definition: An array exhibits equal row and column sums when the sum of all elements in each row equals the sum of all elements in each column.
- โ Calculation: To check, add up all numbers in each row and then add up all numbers in each column.
- โ๏ธ Verification: If the total obtained from adding rows is the same as the total obtained from adding columns, the array fulfills the condition.
- ๐ก Example: Consider a 2x2 array: [[1, 2], [2, 1]]. Row sums: 1+2=3, 2+1=3. Column sums: 1+2=3, 2+1=3.
- ๐ Formula: For an $m \times n$ array $A$, let $R_i$ be the sum of the $i$-th row and $C_j$ be the sum of the $j$-th column. The condition is satisfied if $\sum_{i=1}^{m} R_i = \sum_{j=1}^{n} C_j$.
