The 15-puzzle has been around for over 100 years; even if you don’t know it by that name, you’ve seen it. It is constructed with 15 sliding tiles, each with a number from 1 to 15 on it, and all packed into a 4 by 4 frame with one tile missing. Let’s call the missing tile ‘x’; the object of the puzzle is to arrange the tiles so that they are ordered as:
1 2 3 4
5 6 7 8
9 10 11 12
13 14 15 x
where the only legal operation is to exchange ‘x’ with one of the tiles with which it shares an edge. As an example, the following sequence of moves solves a slightly scrambled puzzle:
1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4
5 6 7 8 5 6 7 8 5 6 7 8 5 6 7 8
9 x 10 12 9 10 x 12 9 10 11 12 9 10 11 12
13 14 11 15 13 14 11 15 13 14 x 15 13 14 15 x
r-> d-> r->
The letters in the previous row indicate which neighbor of the ‘x’ tile is swapped with the ‘x’ tile at each step; legal values are ‘r’,‘l’,‘u’ and ‘d’, for right, left, up, and down, respectively.
Not all puzzles can be solved; in 1870, a man named Sam Loyd was famous for distributing an unsolvable version of the puzzle, and frustrating many people. In fact, all you have to do to make a regular puzzle into an unsolvable one is to swap two tiles (not counting the missing ‘x’ tile, of course).
In this problem, you will write a program for solving the less well-known 8-puzzle, composed of tiles on a three by three arrangement.
Input
You will receive a description of a configuration of the 8 puzzle. The description is just a list of the tiles in their initial positions, with the rows listed from top to bottom, and the tiles listed from left to right within a row, where the tiles are represented by numbers 1 to 8, plus ‘x’. For example, this puzzle
1 2 3
x 4 6
7 5 8
is described by this list:
1 2 3 x 4 6 7 5 8
Output
You will print to standard output either the word ``unsolvable’’, if the puzzle has no solution, or a string consisting entirely of the letters ‘r’, ‘l’, ‘u’ and ‘d’ that describes a series of moves that produce a solution. The string should include no spaces and start at the beginning of the line.
Sample Input
2 3 4 1 5 x 7 6 8
Sample Output
ullddrurdllurdruldr
思路
可以将二维的八数码数字看成一维的不同数字的排列,而x就把它看成数字0就可以了,然后这题用双向广搜解的话就开两个队列,一个正向搜索,另一个反向搜索,如果两者相遇就说明有解。
- 构造节点
这里的节点可以利用结构体来构造,而每个节点都应有两个成员,一个用来存放数字的排列,另一个来存放操作’u’、‘d’、‘l’、‘r’. - 标记
这题的数据是9位数的排列,可以采用“康托展开”来进行判重标记。这里的相遇可以用标记数组来表示: 正向搜索过的节点被标记为1,而反向搜索过的节点就标记为2
注意:在找到解输出答案时,对于反向队列里节点的操作,要逆向输出并且如果是’r’就要输出’l’,其它的操作也一样要输出相反的方向,因为反向队列是按着反向来搜索的
因为是用双向广搜写的,所以导致代码量较多,细节也较多,因此要养成在代码里注释的习惯,以便debug时用上
