pat1046Shortest Distance (20)

56 篇文章 0 订阅

题意分析:

(1)给出一个环形公路中几个相邻出口之间的距离,然后任意给出若干对出口,求出这些出口之间最短的距离,(即从一个出口沿着两个方向到达另外一个出口的最短距离)

(2)建议大家画一个示意图,分别求出沿着两个方向遍历到达另外一个出口的距离,然后比较这两个距离

(3)这题坑在第三个案例上面,即使是时间复杂度为O(n)的如此简单算法,PAT的出题人也要在此设坑,简单的遍历都会超时,看来我们不能去遍历求和。如果不能用遍历,那该用什么?仔细想想,貌似在输入结束后,不遍历我们什么也不能做了。那该怎么办?别急!输入完后不能遍历求和,那在输入时呢?出题人总要输入数据的时间吧。因此我们立刻联想到1044题中利用了累积连续和的思想。如果我们存储的是从位置1开始到当前位置的距离,即每次存储的是上一个位置的值+当前相邻出口的距离。这样再计算任意两个出口的距离,直接使用从出口1到出口j的累计距离-出口1到出口i的累计距离,时间复杂度瞬间降到O(1).多么美妙的思路!

可能坑点:

(1)不要简单遍历求和,否则第三个案例超时

(2)另外按照(3)的算法,使用sanf和printf比cin和cout在第三个案例上面有很大差别,分别是11ms和39ms

#include <iostream>
#include <algorithm>
#include <stdio.h>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    int N,M,i=1,j=0;
    scanf("%d",&N);
    const int num=N+1;
    int distance[num],temp;
    distance[0]=0;
    while(i<=N)
    {
        scanf("%d",&temp);
        distance[i]=distance[i-1]+temp;
        i++;
    }
    scanf("%d",&M);
    int from,to;
    while(j<M)
    {
        scanf("%d %d",&from,&to);
        if(from>to)swap(from,to);
        int a=distance[to-1]-distance[from-1];
        int b=distance[from-1]+distance[N]-distance[to-1];
        printf("%d\n",a<b?a:b);
        j++;
    }
    return 0;
}

Every year the cows hold an event featuring a peculiar version of hopscotch that involves carefully jumping from rock to rock in a river. The excitement takes place on a long, straight river with a rock at the start and another rock at the end, L units away from the start (1 ≤ L ≤ 1,000,000,000). Along the river between the starting and ending rocks, N (0 ≤ N ≤ 50,000) more rocks appear, each at an integral distance Di from the start (0 < Di < L). To play the game, each cow in turn starts at the starting rock and tries to reach the finish at the ending rock, jumping only from rock to rock. Of course, less agile cows never make it to the final rock, ending up instead in the river. Farmer John is proud of his cows and watches this event each year. But as time goes by, he tires of watching the timid cows of the other farmers limp across the short distances between rocks placed too closely together. He plans to remove several rocks in order to increase the shortest distance a cow will have to jump to reach the end. He knows he cannot remove the starting and ending rocks, but he calculates that he has enough resources to remove up to M rocks (0 ≤ M ≤ N). FJ wants to know exactly how much he can increase the shortest distance *before* he starts removing the rocks. Help Farmer John determine the greatest possible shortest distance a cow has to jump after removing the optimal set of M rocks. Input Line 1: Three space-separated integers: L, N, and M Lines 2..N+1: Each line contains a single integer indicating how far some rock is away from the starting rock. No two rocks share the same position. Output Line 1: A single integer that is the maximum of the shortest distance a cow has to jump after removing M rocks Sample Inputcopy Outputcopy 25 5 2 2 14 11 21 17 4 Hint Before removing any rocks, the shortest jump was a jump of 2 from 0 (the start) to 2. After removing the rocks at 2 and 14, the shortest required jump is a jump of 4 (from 17 to 21 or from 21 to 25).
