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?
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
4
Hint
The 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.
题意:
已知农夫和牛的位置。农夫每次可以向前走一步或他所在位置的同等距离,向后走一步。问农夫最少移动几次可找到牛。

这题的神操作:结构体入队列
struct step{
int x;
int steps;
step(int xx,int s):x(xx),steps(s) {}
};
queue<step> q;
具体应用见代码
#include <iostream>
#include<cstring>
#include<cstdio>
#include<queue>
using namespace std;
int n,m;
const int maxn=100000;
int visit[maxn+5];
struct step{
int x;
int steps;
step(int xx,int s):x(xx),steps(s) {}
};
queue<step> q;
int main()
{
scanf("%d %d",&n,&m);
memset(visit,0,sizeof(visit));
visit[n]=1;q.push(step(n,0));
while(!q.empty())
{
step s=q.front();q.pop();
if(s.x==m)
{
cout<<s.steps<<endl;return 0;
}
else {
if(s.x-1>=0&&!visit[s.x-1])
{
q.push(step(s.x-1,s.steps+1));
visit[s.x-1]=1;
}
if(s.x+1<=maxn&&!visit[s.x+1])
{
q.push(step(s.x+1,s.steps+1));
visit[s.x+1]=1;
}
if(s.x*2<=maxn&&!visit[s.x*2])
{
q.push(step(s.x*2,s.steps+1));
visit[s.x-1]=1;
}
}
}
return 0;
