Maximum points by traversing from top left of Matrix to bottom right by two persons - Coding

Given a matrix grid[][] of order N*M with numbers 0-9 in the cells. The task is to find the maximum amount of money collected when two persons move from (0, 0) to (N-1, M-1) by moving only right and down. If both persons are at the same cell, then only one of them can pick the money at that location.

Examples:

Input:
1 1 1
1 0 1
1 1 1
Output: 8
Explanation: Let 1 denote the places where person 1 collects the money and 2 denote where person 2 does so, then a possible solution is
1 1 1
2 0 1
2 2 1

Input:
0 9 9 3 3
2 9 3 3 3
0 3 3 3 3
4 1 1 1 1
Output: 52

Approach: The problem can be solved by using the recursion, by moving both the persons down and right in each of the cell and finding the maximum path sum in all the paths from (0, 0) to (N-1, M-1). So the idea is to find the cost of all possible paths and to find the maximum of them.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++

// C++ program for the above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
const static int MAXR = 20, MAXC = 20;
int cache[MAXC][MAXR][MAXC][MAXR],
    dp[MAXC][MAXR][MAXC][MAXR];
int n, m;
vector<string> grid;
 
// Function to find maximum money collected
// when moving from (0, 0) to (N-1, M-1)
int maxMoney(int x1, int y1, int x2, int y2)
{
    // Out of bounds of grid
    if (x1 >= n || y1 >= m || x2 >= n || y2 >= m)
        return 0;
    if (cache[x1][y1][x2][y2] != 0)
        return dp[x1][y1][x2][y2];
 
    // Mark state as visited
    cache[x1][y1][x2][y2] = 1;
 
    // Collect money from the grid cell
    int money = grid[y1][x1] - '0';
    if (x1 != x2 || y1 != y2)
        money += grid[y2][x2] - '0';
 
    // Take maximum of all possibilities
    return dp[x1][y1][x2][y2]
           = money
             + max(
                   max(maxMoney(x1 + 1, y1, x2 + 1, y2),
                       maxMoney(x1, y1 + 1, x2 + 1, y2)),
                   max(maxMoney(x1 + 1, y1, x2, y2 + 1),
                       maxMoney(x1, y1 + 1, x2, y2 + 1)));
}
 
// Driver Code
int32_t main()
{
    // Given Input
    n = 3;
    m = 3;
    grid.push_back("111");
    grid.push_back("101");
    grid.push_back("111");
 
    // Function Call
    cout << maxMoney(0, 0, 0, 0);
 
    return 0;
}
