| 4 | + * 723. Candy Crush |
| 5 | + * |
| 6 | + * This question is about implementing a basic elimination algorithm for Candy Crush. |
| 7 | + * Given a 2D integer array board representing the grid of candy, different positive integers board[i][j] |
| 8 | + * represent different types of candies. |
| 9 | + * A value of board[i][j] = 0 represents that the cell at position (i, j) is empty. |
| 10 | + * The given board represents the state of the game following the player's move. |
| 11 | + * Now, you need to restore the board to a stable state by crushing candies according to the following rules: |
| 12 | + * |
| 13 | + * If three or more candies of the same type are adjacent vertically or horizontally, |
| 14 | + * "crush" them all at the same time - these positions become empty. |
| 15 | + * After crushing all candies simultaneously, if an empty space on the board has candies on top of itself, |
| 16 | + * then these candies will drop until they hit a candy or bottom at the same time. |
| 17 | + * (No new candies will drop outside the top boundary.) |
| 18 | + * After the above steps, there may exist more candies that can be crushed. |
| 19 | + * If so, you need to repeat the above steps. |
| 20 | + * If there does not exist more candies that can be crushed (ie. the board is stable), then return the current board. |
| 21 | + * You need to perform the above rules until the board becomes stable, then return the current board. |

| 23 | + Example 1: |
| 24 | +
|
| 25 | + Input: |
| 26 | + board = |
| 27 | + [[110,5,112,113,114],[210,211,5,213,214],[310,311,3,313,314],[410,411,412,5,414],[5,1,512,3,3],[610,4,1,613,614],[710,1,2,713,714],[810,1,2,1,1],[1,1,2,2,2],[4,1,4,4,1014]] |
| 28 | +
|
| 29 | + Output: |
| 30 | + [[0,0,0,0,0],[0,0,0,0,0],[0,0,0,0,0],[110,0,0,0,114],[210,0,0,0,214],[310,0,0,113,314],[410,0,0,213,414],[610,211,112,313,614],[710,311,412,613,714],[810,411,512,713,1014]] |
| 31 | + Explanation: |
| 32 | +
|
| 33 | + Note: |
| 34 | + The length of board will be in the range [3, 50]. |
| 35 | + The length of board[i] will be in the range [3, 50]. |
| 36 | + Each board[i][j] will initially start as an integer in the range [1, 2000]. |
