Prime Path
Description
The ministers of the cabinet were quite upset by the message from the Chief of Security stating that they would all have to change the four-digit room numbers on their offices.
— It is a matter of security to change such things every now and then, to keep the enemy in the dark. — But look, I have chosen my number 1033 for good reasons. I am the Prime minister, you know! — I know, so therefore your new number 8179 is also a prime. You will just have to paste four new digits over the four old ones on your office door. — No, it’s not that simple. Suppose that I change the first digit to an 8, then the number will read 8033 which is not a prime! — I see, being the prime minister you cannot stand having a non-prime number on your door even for a few seconds. — Correct! So I must invent a scheme for going from 1033 to 8179 by a path of prime numbers where only one digit is changed from one prime to the next prime. Now, the minister of finance, who had been eavesdropping, intervened. — No unnecessary expenditure, please! I happen to know that the price of a digit is one pound. — Hmm, in that case I need a computer program to minimize the cost. You don't know some very cheap software gurus, do you? — In fact, I do. You see, there is this programming contest going on... Help the prime minister to find the cheapest prime path between any two given four-digit primes! The first digit must be nonzero, of course. Here is a solution in the case above. 1033The cost of this solution is 6 pounds. Note that the digit 1 which got pasted over in step 2 can not be reused in the last step – a new 1 must be purchased. Input
One line with a positive number: the number of test cases (at most 100). Then for each test case, one line with two numbers separated by a blank. Both numbers are four-digit primes (without leading zeros).
Output
One line for each case, either with a number stating the minimal cost or containing the word Impossible.

BFS,和数字结合还是很巧妙的
打个质数表和hash判重,有效提高效率。
#include <iostream>
#include <cstring>
using namespace std;
struct node{
int k,step;
}queue[10000],temp;
bool b[10000]={0};
int hash[10000];
int i,j,k,n,end,fa,so;
int change(int x,int n,int k);
int bfs();
int main()
{
for (i=2;i<5000;++i)
if (!b[i]){
j=i; k=j+j;
while (k<10000){
b[k]=1; k+=j;
}
}
cin>>n;
while (n--)
cout<<bfs()<<endl;
return 0;
}
int change(int x,int n,int k){
int i,j,t2,t3,t1=1;
if (n==1 && k==0) return 0;
for (i=4;i>=n;--i) t1*=10;
t3=x%(t1/10);
t2=x/t1;
t2=t2*10+k;
t2=t2*t1/10+t3;
if (!b[t2] && !hash[t2]) return t2;
return 0;
}
int bfs(){
int i,j,k,fa=0,so=0;
memset(hash,0,sizeof(hash));
cin>>queue[fa].k>>end;
hash[queue[fa].k]=1;
queue[fa].step=0;
while (fa<=so){
for (i=1;i<=4;++i)
for (j=0;j<=9;++j){
k=change(queue[fa].k,i,j);
if (k){
hash[k]=1;
if (k==end)
return queue[fa].step+1;
queue[++so].k=k;
queue[so].step=queue[fa].step+1;
