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?
* 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
4HintThe 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.第一道BFS题# include<cstdio> # include<cstring> # include<queue> # include<algorithm> # define MAXM 100000 + 100 using namespace std; int num[MAXM]; int vis[MAXM]; void bfs(int start, int end) { int now, next; int i, j; queue<int>q; q.push(start); vis[start] = 1; while(!q.empty()) { now = q.front(); q.pop(); if(now == end) break; next = now + 1; if(!vis[next] && next <= end) { num[next] = num[now] + 1; vis[next] = 1; q.push(next); } next = now - 1; if(!vis[next] && next >= 0) { num[next] = num[now] + 1; vis[next] = 1; q.push(next); } next = now * 2; if(!vis[next] && next <= MAXM) { num[next] = num[now] + 1; vis[next] = 1; q.push(next); } } printf("%d\n",num[end]); } int main() { int i, j; int start, end; while(scanf("%d%d",&start,&end)!=EOF) { memset(vis, 0, sizeof(vis)); memset(num, 0, sizeof(num)); bfs(start, end); } return 0; }
