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?

注意:
1.该题目为什么是广度搜索,因为是在求最优解,所以肯定不能用深度搜索,不然一定会超时。
2.问题分类:
2.1考虑问题一定要全面,一种是n>k的,当n大于k的时候,一定不可以再乘以2了(越乘越大,你的牛不就更远了吗?哈哈)
2.2n<k的时候,无非就是题目中给的那三种情况。一种是+1,一种是-1,另外一种是*2。根据这三种广度搜索就好了。
