Description
George took sticks of the same length and cut them randomly until all parts became at most 50 units long. Now he wants to return sticks to the original state, but he forgot how many sticks he had originally and how long they were originally. Please help him and design a program which computes the smallest possible original length of those sticks. All lengths expressed in units are integers greater than zero.
Input
The input contains blocks of 2 lines. The first line contains the number of sticks parts after cutting, there are at most 64 sticks. The second line contains the lengths of those parts separated by the space. The last line of the file contains zero.
Output
The output should contains the smallest possible length of original sticks, one per line.

思路
dfs+剪枝
不剪枝会超时
具体看代码
代码
#include<iostream>
#include<algorithm>
#include<cstdio>
#include<cstring>
using namespace std;
int l[80],vis[80]; //l长度 vis标记棍是否用过
int n,sum,num; //n棍的总数 sum棍的长度 num接成棍的数量
bool dfs(int cnt,int now,int pos,int len) //cnt已拼成的棍 now此次拼接的现有长度
{ //pos指针,此次遍历到的位置 len拼接完成后一根棍的长度
if(cnt==num)
return true; //拼完 返回
for(int i=pos+1;i<=n;i++)
{
if(vis[i]) //用过
continue;
if(now+l[i]==len) //刚好拼好
{
vis[i]=1; //标记
if(dfs(cnt+1,0,0,len)) //判断下一根是否可拼好
return true;
vis[i]=0; //拼接失败,原标记清除
return false;
}
else if(now+l[i]>len) //大于肯定不行
continue;
else
{
vis[i]=1; //标记
if(dfs(cnt,now+l[i],i,len)) //长度不够,找下一部分
return true; //剪枝 从上次遍历位置后面继续
vis[i]=false;
if(now==0)
return false; //剪枝 如果现有长度为零且第一根棍用不了的话就肯定不行
while(l[i]=l[i+1]) //因为每一根棍子都要被用到,长度为0的时候应该是随便用
i++; //剪枝 因为是排好序的,所以下一段长度可能与这一段相同 不需要再去判断
}
}
return false;
}
int main()
{
while(1)
{
cin>>n;
if(n==0)
return 0;
sum=0;
for(int i=1;i<=n;i++)
{
scanf("%d",&l[i]);
sum+=l[i];
}
sort(l+1,l+n+1,greater<int>()); //排序
for(int i=l[1];i<=sum;i++) //最短为最长的一段,最长为总和
{
memset(vis,0,sizeof(vis)); //标记清空
if(sum%i!=0) //剪枝 所有的总长除以数量应该为整数
continue;
num=sum/i;
if(dfs(1,0,0,i))
{
cout<<i<<endl;
break;
}
}
}
