Problem:
Game of Connections
Description
This is a small but ancient game. You are supposed to write down the numbers 1, 2, 3, . . . , 2n - 1, 2n consecutively in clockwise order on the ground to form a circle, and then, to draw some straight line segments to connect them into number pairs. Every number must be connected to exactly one another.
And, no two segments are allowed to intersect. It's still a simple game, isn't it? But after you've written down the 2n numbers, can you tell me in how many different ways can you connect the numbers into pairs? Life is harder, right? Input
Each line of the input file will be a single positive number n, except the last line, which is a number -1.
You may assume that 1 <= n <= 100. Output
For each n, print in a single line the number of ways to connect the 2n numbers into pairs.
Sample Input 2 3 -1 Sample Output 2 5 Source |
题意:有2n个点围成一个圆,现在把所有的点都和另外一个点连上线,问总共有多少种连法?
思路:数学+高精度。递推的公式:dp(n) = dp(0)*dp(n-1) + dp(1)*dp(n-2) +...+ dp(n-1)*dp(0)。
这就是Catalan数,可以化简为1阶递推关系: 如h(n) = (4n-2)/(n+1) * h(n-1) (n>1), h(0)=1
* 该递推关系的解为:h(n) = c(2n,n)/(n+1) (n=1,2,3,...)
