This approach uses two additional arrays to track the rows and columns that need to be zeroed.
- Traverse the matrix and mark rows and columns that need to be zeroed.
- Then, update the matrix based on the values in these arrays.
Time Complexity: O(m * n), where m is the number of rows and n is the number of columns.
Space Complexity: O(m + n) for the additional arrays.

This approach uses the matrix itself to track zeroes.
- Use the first row and column as markers.
- Traverse the matrix and if an element is zero, mark its row and column.
- Traverse again and set matrix elements to zero based on marked rows and columns.
Time Complexity: O(m * n), where m is the number of rows and n is the number of columns.
Space Complexity: O(1) since the algorithm runs in constant space.
