HDU-2717 Catch That Cow
Time Limit: 5000/2000 MS (Java/Others)
Memory Limit: 32768/32768 K (Java/Others)
Problem Description
Farmer John has been informed of the location of a fugitive cow and wants to catch her immediately. He starts at a point N (0 ≤ N ≤ 100,000) on a number line and the cow is at a point K (0 ≤ K ≤ 100,000) on the same number line. Farmer John has two modes of transportation: walking and teleporting.
-Walking: FJ can move from any point X to the points X - 1 or X + 1 in a single minute
-Teleporting: FJ can move from any point X to the point 2 × X in a single minute.
If the cow, unaware of its pursuit, does not move at all, how long does it take for Farmer John to retrieve it?
Input
Line 1: Two space-separated integers: N and K
Output
Line 1: The least amount of time, in minutes, it takes for Farmer John to catch the fugitive cow.
Sample Input
5 17
Sample Output
4
Hint :he fastest way for Farmer John to reach the fugitive cow is to move along the following path: 5-10-9-18-17, which takes 4 minutes.

分析
题意:给出一个起点,一个终点,然后根据要求的方法来到达终点,求出所用的最短的时间
思路:这类题做多了就会感到非常简单,这题还没有一点套路,直接广搜的方法一用就求出来了。
