Problem statement

Several satellites provide observational black and white images which are stored in data centers at Amazon Web Services (AWS).

A black and white image is composed of pixels and is represented as an n x m grid of cells. Each cell has a value of 0 or 1, where 0 represents a white pixel and 1 represents a black pixel. The grayness of a cell (i, j) is affected by the pixel values in the i^th row and the j^th column. More formally, the grayness of the cell (i, j) is the difference between the number of black pixels in the i^th row and the j^th column and the number of white pixels in the i^th row and the j^th column.

Find the maximum grayness among all the cells of the grid.

Note: The value of cell (i, j) is counted both in the i^th row and in the j^th column.

Function

getMaxGrayness(pixels: String[]) → int

Complete the function getMaximumGreyness in the editor.

GetMaximumGreyness has the following parameter:

string pixels[n]: a grid of pixels, where the i^thstring consists of m characters and represents the i^throw of pixels.

Returns

int: the max greyness of the grid of pixels.

Examples

Example 1

pixels = ["1010", "0101", "1010"]return = 1

The n x m = 3 x 4 grid of pixels looks like this: 1 0 1 0
0 1 0 1
1 0 1 0 The grayness of each cell is: 1 -1 1 -1
1 -1 1 -1
1 -1 1 -1 The maximum achievable grayness is 1.

Example 2

pixels = ["011", "101", "001"]return = 4

The 3 x 3 grid of pixels looks like this: 0 1 1
1 0 1
0 0 1 The grayness of each cell is: 0 0 4
0 0 4
-2 -2 2 The maximum achievable grayness is 4.

Example 3

pixels = ["101", "001", "110"]return = 2

The 3 x 3 grid of pixels looks like this: 1 0 1
0 0 1
1 1 0 The greyness of the cell (1, 1) is calculated as the image above 👆 The greyness of each cell is: 2 0 2
0 -2 0
2 0 2 The maximum achievable greyness is 2.

Constraints

1 ≤ n, m ≤ 1000
pixels[i][j] = '0' or '1' for all 0 ≤ i < n and 0 ≤ j < m
