Problem 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?
* 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
4HintThe 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.【代码】#include<stdio.h> #include<string.h> #include<queue> #define maxn 100100 using namespace std; int n,k; int map[maxn]; struct node { int x,step; } a,b; //b表示下一步 int check(int x) { if(x<0||x>100000||map[x]) return 0; return 1; } int bfs(int x) { int i; queue<node> q; //node a,next; a.x=x; a.step=0; map[x]=1; q.push(a); while(!q.empty()) { a=q.front(); q.pop(); if(a.x==k) return a.step; b=a; b.x=a.x+1; if(check(b.x)) { b.step=a.step+1; map[b.x]=1; q.push(b); } b.x=a.x-1; if(check(b.x)) { b.step=a.step+1; map[b.x]=1; q.push(b); } b.x=2*a.x; if(check(b.x)) { b.step=a.step+1; map[b.x]=1; q.push(b); } } } int main() { int ans; while(scanf("%d%d",&n,&k)!=EOF) { memset(map,0,sizeof(map)); ans=bfs(n); printf("%d\n",ans); } return 0; }
