HOTS (Higher Order Thinking Questions):

Q.1. Write a Python function that takes a 2D array as input and returns the sum of all the elements in the array.

def sum_2d_array(arr):

    total_sum = 0

    for row in arr:

        total_sum += sum(row)

    return total_sum

Q.2. Write a Python program to find the row with the highest sum in a given 2D array.

def highest_sum_row(arr):

    max_sum = float('-inf')

    max_row = None

    for row in arr:

        row_sum = sum(row)

        if row_sum > max_sum:

            max_sum = row_sum

            max_row = row

    return max_row

Q.3. Write a Python program to transpose a given 2D array (swap rows with columns).

def transpose_2d_array(arr):

    transposed_arr = [[arr[j][i] for j in range(len(arr))] for i in range(len(arr[0]))]

    return transposed_arr

Q.4. Write a Python program to check if a given 2D array is symmetric (a[i][j] == a[j][i] for all elements).

def is_symmetric(arr):

    for i in range(len(arr)):

        for j in range(len(arr[0])):

            if arr[i][j] != arr[j][i]:

                return False

    return True

Q.5. Write a Python program to rotate a given 2D array by 90 degrees clockwise.

def rotate_2d_array(arr):

    rotated_arr = [[arr[j][i] for j in range(len(arr) - 1, -1, -1)] for i in range(len(arr[0]))]

    return rotated_arr

Hands-On Questions

Q.1. Write a Python program to create a 3x3 2D array and print its elements.

my_array = [[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6], [7, 8, 9]]

for row in my_array:

    print(row)

Q.2. Write a Python program to calculate the sum of all the elements in a given 2D array.

def sum_2d_array(arr):

    total_sum = 0

    for row in arr:

        total_sum += sum(row)

    return total_sum

my_array = [[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6], [7, 8, 9]]
