You are given an m x n matrix board containing letters 'X' and 'O', capture regions that are surrounded:
- Connect: A cell is connected to adjacent cells horizontally or vertically.
- Region: To form a region connect every
'O'cell. - Surround: A region is surrounded if none of the
'O'cells in that region are on the edge of the board. Such regions are completely enclosed by'X'cells.
To capture a surrounded region, replace all 'O's with 'X's in-place within the original board. You do not need to return anything.
Example 1:
Input: board = [["X","X","X","X"],["X","O","O","X"],["X","X","O","X"],["X","O","X","X"]]
Output: [["X","X","X","X"],["X","X","X","X"],["X","X","X","X"],["X","O","X","X"]]
Explanation:
In the above diagram, the bottom region is not captured because it is on the edge of the board and cannot be surrounded.
Example 2:
Input: board = [["X"]]
Output: [["X"]]
Constraints:
m == board.lengthn == board[i].length1 <= m, n <= 200board[i][j]is'X'or'O'.
