metrics calc

[AIXFinder]

I like to calculate numbers based on the following metrics:

There will be input strings for the horizontal and vertical lines.

The assigned numbers for each input string will increase by 1 vertically and horizontally.

i.e.

0 1 2 3 4 5

1

2

3

so, if the input strings for the horizontal are: X Y X W Z respectively
and the input strings for the vertical are: X W Y respectively

then, it will be:

X Y X W Z
0 1 2 3 4 5

X 1

W 2

Y 3

The calculation logics with for each cell are:

1) the number assigned vertical + 1 (= always increased by 1)
2) the number assigned horizontal + 1 (= always increased by 1)
3) for the diagonal, if the input string is the same, then no change
if the input strings are different, the diagonal + 1

then, choose the smallest number and then display.

so, if I illustrate these logics with the example above:

the very first cell ( X, X)
• the number assigned vertical =1 + 1 = 2
• the number assigned horizontal = 1 + 1 = 2
• the number assigned diagonal = 0 + 0 (because X =X) =0
so, choose 0 (the smallest)

the next cell ( X, W) to down
• the number assigned vertical =0 (this is the smallest number vertical chosen from the cell above) + 1 = 1
• the number assigned horizontal = 2 + 1 = 3
• the number assigned diagonal = 1 + 1 (X != W) =2
so, choose 1 (the smallest)


the next cell ( X, Y) to down
• the number assigned vertical =1 (this is the smallest number vertical chosen from the cell above) + 1 = 2
• the number assigned horizontal = 3 + 1 = 4
• the number assigned diagonal = 1 + 1 (X != Y) =2
so, choose 2 (the smallest)


For the first cell in the second column, ( Y, X)
• the number assigned vertical =2 + 1 = 3
• the number assigned horizontal = 0 (this is the smallest number vertical chosen from the cell left) + 1 = 1
• the number assigned diagonal = 1 + 1 (Y != X) =2
so, choose 1 (the smallest)


the next cell ( Y, W) to down
• the number assigned vertical =1 (this is the smallest number vertical chosen from the cell above) + 1 = 2
• the number assigned horizontal = 1 + 1 = 2
• the number assigned diagonal = 0 (this is the number diagonal chosen from the cell diagonal) + 1 (Y != W) =1
so, choose 1 (the smallest)

the next cell ( Y, Y) to down
• the number assigned vertical =1 (this is the smallest number vertical chosen from the cell above) + 1 = 2
• the number assigned horizontal = 2 (this is the smallest number horizontal chosen from the cell left) + 1 = 3
• the number assigned diagonal = 1 (this is the number diagonal chosen from the cell diagonal) + 0 (Y = Y) =1
so, choose 1 (the smallest)

and repeat the same logic.

Can you help me on getting started?

thx so much

OK, have you written any code at all so fa? Do you know some perl?
