Mark my beacons

+2
−0

Given a grid of numbers, mark the concentric areas around nonzero elements (beacons) decreasing from the value of the beacon till 1.

For example, here are some grids with a single beacon:

Size 1:

0 0 0    0 0 0
0 1 0 -> 0 1 0
0 0 0    0 0 0

Size 2:

0 0 0    1 1 1
0 2 0 -> 1 2 1
0 0 0    1 1 1

Size 3:

0 0 0 0 0    1 1 1 1 1
0 0 0 0 0    1 2 2 2 1
0 0 3 0 0 -> 1 2 3 2 1
0 0 0 0 0    1 2 2 2 1
0 0 0 0 0    1 1 1 1 1

I/O

Your input is in the form of a 2D grid of integers. You can take the dimensions if needed.

  • Your output can have multiple beacons of various sizes.
  • If beacons overlap, you can overwrite one full beacon over the other. You can choose which beacon takes priority.
  • beacons can be on the edges of the grid. they will not wrap around.
