Which tetromino is this?

Question

Given an unsigned 16-bit integer N, your task is to determine whether its binary representation mapped inside a 4x4 matrix is matching a tetromino shape, and if so, which shape it is.

Matrix

Each bit of N is mapped inside a 4x4 matrix, from left to right and from top to bottom, starting with the most significant one.

Example:

N = 17600
binary representation: 0100010011000000
matrix: [ [ 0, 1, 0, 0 ],
          [ 0, 1, 0, 0 ],
          [ 1, 1, 0, 0 ],
          [ 0, 0, 0, 0 ] ]

Tetromino shapes

Base shapes

There are 7 tetromino shapes, identified by the letters O, I, S, Z, L, J and T:

Rotations and translations

If a shape is translated and/or rotated within the 4x4 matrix, it is still considered a valid variation of the same tetromino. For instance, 17600, 1136, 2272 and 1604 should all be identified as J tetrominoes:

Don't wrap!

However, the shapes can't wrap around or be shifted beyond any boundary of the matrix. For instance, neither 568 nor 688 should be identified as J tetrominoes (let alone any other shape):

Clarifications and rules

• You may take input as an integer, or directly as 16 binary digits in any reasonable format, such as a 2D array, a flat array or a delimited string.
• The input is guaranteed to be an unsigned 16-bit integer (or its equivalent representation as an array or a string).
• When a valid shape is identified, you must print or return the letter identifying the shape, in either lower or upper case.
• If no shape is identified, you must print or return a value that doesn't match any tetromino letter. You may also choose to return nothing at all.
• To be considered valid, the matrix must contain the exact tetromino shape without any additional cells (see 1911 and 34953 in the test cases).
• This is code-golf, so the shortest answer in bytes wins!

def f(n):
 while n&4369<n/n:n>>=1
 while n&15<1:n>>=4
 return'TJLZSIO'["rēȣc63ıGtIJȱᄑ@'̢̑@@@@Ȳq".index(chr(n))%7]

Expects an integer n representing a 4 × 4 binary matrix. Throws if no tetromino is found.

Line 2 slides the shape to the right until a 1 is in the rightmost column. (4369 is 0001 0001 0001 0001 in binary.) Line 3 lowers the shape until a 1 is in the bottom row. Together this turns e.g.:

    0 1 0 0        0 0 0 0
    1 1 1 0  into  0 0 0 0
    0 0 0 0        0 0 1 0
    0 0 0 0        0 1 1 1

Then we look for the index of n in this list:

 [114  275  547   99   54   15   51
  305   71  116  306  561 4369   64
   39  802  785   64   64   64   64
  562  113   23]
#   T    J    L    Z    S    I    O

Each column of indices equivalent modulo 7 corresponds to a tetromino shape. 64 (@) is used as a padding value as n cannot be 64 at this point in the code.

NB. An exception is thrown for input 0 by computing n/n instead of 1.

Works by creating all four rotations of the input, then looking for each tetromino in each rotation.

   ⍺ the left argument i.e. the input

Answer 3

JavaScript (ES6), 242 212 172 164 bytes

x=>[...'OISZLJT'].filter((z,y)=>x.match(`^0*(${'99,33825|15,51|2145,195|561,2115|57,1059|135,71|1073'.split`,`[y].replace(/\d+/g,C=x=>x?x%2+C(x>>1)+x%2:'|')})0*$`))

Was supposed to be just to get the ball rolling, but I'm a little late for that ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Takes a string of bits, with rows separated by 0s ('0001000110001000000' representing 0001 0011 0010 0000) and returns an array containing the character representing the tetromino, or an array containing nothing.

This works by checking each rotation of tetromino to see if the input at any point contains the tetromino, surrounded entirely by zeroes on either side. Each tetromino is represented by one or more binary numbers:

0 0 0 0   -> 0000 0110 1100 0000
0 1 1 0   -> 0000001100110000000
1 1 0 0   -> 110011
0 0 0 0   -> 51

0 1 0 0   -> 0100 0110 0010 0000
0 1 1 0   -> 0100001100001000000
0 0 1 0   -> 100001100001
0 0 0 0   -> 2145

So to check if the input contains an S tetromino, we simply check whether it contains the binary representation of either 51 or 2145, with only 0s on either side.

A few of the tetrominoes have 4 orientations. If you look at the binary representations of these, each has 2 representations which are simply the mirror of the other two. To save space, the binary representation is built up forward and backward simultaneously with the recursive C function, allowing us to only put two of the orientations in and have the other two implied.

Alternate approach with charcodes:

x=>[...'OISZLJT'].filter((z,y)=>x.match(`^0*(${[...'÷,êÿ,óî,ûÝ,ëúüÏ,çöïþ,ßýíÞ'.split`,`[y]].map(c=>(C=n=>n?'1e'+(n%4+2)%5-0+C(n>>2):'')(c.charCodeAt())).join`|`})0*$`))

This first takes all four rotations of the input. Then it shifts the set bits of each as far to the right and then as far to the bottom as possible and converts the results to binary numbers. It then looks up the minimum result in a list of the minimal such representations of each valid tetromino and uses the decremented result to index into the two concatenated dictionary words zoist+jowl, yielding w when no match was found.

This checks there are at least three empty lines (rows+columns) and that certain patterns of bits are not present in any line (specifically the numbers 5,9,10,11, and 13), these together assure the next step wont yield false-positives. It then flattens and then floor-shifts the binary number (by striping trailing zeros before conversion) of each of the four rotations, and looks up the minimal result in a list of numbers, using the decremented result to index into the two concatenated dictionary words zoist+jowl, yielding w when no match was found.

s`(.*1){5}.*

Delete the input if it contains 5 1s.

Check all rotations of the input (see below). If the input contains four consecutive 1s, it's an I.

s`.*111(.{2,4})1.*

If it contains three consecutive 1s plus a 1 on the next line underneath one of the three, then map the number of intermediate characters to the appropriate result letter.

Similarly for two adjacent 1s adjacent to two adjacent 1s on the next line.

Input is a binary 4×4 array (matrix), using ; as row separator. Ouput is a letter or empty for no tetromino.

Try it online! Or verify all test cases (output has a dot appended to allow identifying an empty result).

Explanation

The code builds 4 rotations of the input 4×4 array in steps of 90 degrees. Each rotated array is padded with 2 zeros up and down, which transforms it into a 8×4 array. The 4 arrays are vertically concatenated into a 32×4 array. The four rotated arrays within this concatenated array are "isolated" thanks to the zero-padding.

Each of the 7 possible patterns is tested to see if it is present in the 32×4 array. A loop is used for this. Each pattern is defined by two numbers, which expressed in binary give the appropriate 0/1 mask. For example, numbers 3, 6 define the "S" shape.

The 7 sets of 2 numbers are arranged into a 2×7 matrix, from which the loop will pick each column sequentially. The matrix is defined by pushing all numbers to the stack, contatenating them into a vector, and reshaping into a 2-row matrix. Since the "I" shape is defined by number 15 followed by 0, putting it at the end allows the 0 to be implicitly filled by the reshaping function.

The mask is then padded with 3 zeros in the four directions. This is necessary so as to detect unwanted values in the input.

To see if the mask is present in the 32×4 array, the latter is transformed to bipolar form (i.e. −1/1 instead of 0/1) and convolved with the mask. Since the mask has 4 ones, matching occurs if some entry in the convolution result equals 4.

At the end of the loop, 7 false/true results have been obtained, at most one of which is true. This is used to index into a string containing the possible output letters.

Takes a 16 bit string as input. Outputs nothing if input is not a single tetromino.

How?

The two substitutions "move" the input shape to the bottom right corner. The resulting bit string is converted to an integer, then checked for in a hash of valid integers.
