约瑟夫斯问题

This is an interesting programming
problem know in the literature as Josephus problem. The problem is given as:

1. Suppose there are n children standing
in a queue.

2. Students are numbered from 1 to n
in the clockwise direction.

3. Students choose a lucky number say
m.

They start counting in clockwise
direction from the child designated as 1. The counting proceeds until the mth
child is identified. mth child is eliminated from the queue.
Counting for the next round begins from the child next to the eliminated one
and proceeds until the mth child is identified. This child is then
eliminated and the process continues. After few rounds of counting only one
child is left and this child is declared as winner.

Implementation

It is required to write a program
to identify a winner of the game. Inputs to the function are two parameters.

n: number of children

m: lucky number

function returns an integer
identifying the winner

int winner (int m, int n)

{

queue
q;

int
i;

init
(&q); //create a queue of
n integers, numbered from 1 to n. Number I stands for ith child

for
(i=1; i<=n; i++)

enqueue (&q, i);

for
(j=1; j<=n; j++) //n-1 iterations
to eliminate n-1 children

{

for
(i=1; 1<m; i++) //skip m-1
children

{

x=dequeue
(&q);

enqueue
(&q, x);

}

x=dequeue
(&q); //remove mth children

}

x=dequeue
(&q); //last child winner

return
(x);

}
