The problem

Given a 0-indexed 2D integer matrix grid of size n * m, we define a 0-indexed 2D matrix p of size n * m as the product matrix of grid if the following condition is met: Each element p[i][j] is calculated as the product of all elements in grid except for the element grid[i][j]. This product is then taken modulo 12345.

Example

Input
grid = [[1,2],[3,4]]
Output
[[24,12],[8,6]]
Explanation
p[0][0] = grid[0][1] * grid[1][0] * grid[1][1] = 2 * 3 * 4 = 24

Python solution

Python
class Solution:
    def constructProductMatrix(self, grid: List[List[int]]) -> List[List[int]]:
        n, m = len(grid), len(grid[0])
        p = [[0] * m for _ in range(n)]
        mod = 12345
        suf = 1
        for i in range(n - 1, -1, -1):
            for j in range(m - 1, -1, -1):
                p[i][j] = suf
                suf = suf * grid[i][j] % mod
        pre = 1
        for i in range(n):
            for j in range(m):
                p[i][j] = p[i][j] * pre % mod
                pre = pre * grid[i][j] % mod
        return p
