Message Flood
Description
Well, how do you feel about mobile phone? Your answer would probably be something like that “It’s so convenient and benefits people a lot”. However, If you ask Merlin this question on the New Year’s Eve, he will definitely answer “What a trouble! I have to keep my fingers moving on the phone the whole night, because I have so many greeting message to send!” Yes, Merlin has such a long name list of his friends, and he would like to send a greeting message to each of them. What’s worse, Merlin has another long name list of senders that have sent message to him, and he doesn’t want to send another message to bother them Merlin is so polite that he always replies each message he receives immediately). So, before he begins to send message, he needs to figure to how many friends are left to be sent. Please write a program to help him. Here is something that you should note. First, Merlin’s friend list is not ordered, and each name is alphabetic strings and case insensitive. These names are guaranteed to be not duplicated. Second, some senders may send more than one message to Merlin, therefore the sender list may be duplicated. Third, Merlin is known by so many people, that’s why some message senders are even not included in his friend list.
Input
There are multiple test cases. In each case, at the first line there are two numbers n and m (1<=n,m<=20000), which is the number of friends and the number of messages he has received. And then there are n lines of alphabetic strings(the length of each will be less than 10), indicating the names of Merlin’s friends, one per line. After that there are m lines of alphabetic strings, which are the names of message senders. The input is terminated by n=0.
Output
For each case, print one integer in one line which indicates the number of left friends he must send.

题解
闭坑指南:要注意题目不区分大小写,刚提交的时候没注意这错了无数次TAT
借助hash表记录名单,然后用接收名单遍历,查询是否回过信息。
代码
#include<bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
unordered_map<string,int> mas;
string ucase(string &s){//将名字统一转换为小写
int len = s.length();
while (--len>=0) {
if(s[len]>='A'&& s[len]<='Z')s[len]+=32;
}
return s;
}
int main(){
int n,m; //n代表他要发送的人的数量,m代表接收到的消息数
while (~scanf("%d",&n)) {
if(!n)break; //0结束
scanf("%d",&m);
for (int i=0; i<n; i++) {
string s;
cin>>s;
mas[ucase(s)]=1;//记录名单的人
}
for (int i=0; i<m; i++) {
string s;
cin>>s;
if (mas[ucase(s)]) {//当表中存在该名字并且为1,则他会直接回复,不需再发送
mas[ucase(s)]--;//标记已回复,防止该人再发消息时,再次回复
n--; //从总数中减去
}
}
printf("%d\n",n); //输出还要发送的数量n
mas.clear(); //清空表
}
return 0;
}
