Description
We all love recursion! Don't we?
Consider a three-parameter recursive function w(a, b, c):
if a <= 0 or b <= 0 or c <= 0, then w(a, b, c) returns:
1
if a > 20 or b > 20 or c > 20, then w(a, b, c) returns:
w(20, 20, 20)
if a < b and b < c, then w(a, b, c) returns:
w(a, b, c-1) + w(a, b-1, c-1) - w(a, b-1, c)
otherwise it returns:
w(a-1, b, c) + w(a-1, b-1, c) + w(a-1, b, c-1) - w(a-1, b-1, c-1)
This is an easy function to implement. The problem is, if implemented directly, for moderate values of a, b and c (for example, a = 15, b = 15, c = 15), the program takes hours to run because of the massive recursion.
Input
The input for your program will be a series of integer triples, one per line, until the end-of-file flag of -1 -1 -1. Using the above technique, you are to calculate w(a, b, c) efficiently and print the result.
Output
Print the value for w(a,b,c) for each triple.
Sample Input
1 1 1
2 2 2
10 4 6
50 50 50
-1 7 18
-1 -1 -1
Sample Output
w(1, 1, 1) = 2
w(2, 2, 2) = 4
w(10, 4, 6) = 523
w(50, 50, 50) = 1048576
w(-1, 7, 18) = 1

很明显,这里的函数w定义就是个递归函数。不过w的递归过于复杂,如果直接按照题意编写模拟函数,肯定是TLE的。
这样在递归过程中记录一下中间结果,如果需要用到的时候则可以查表。由于有当a,b,c大于20的时候都视为20,则这个表是三维,最大元素为20的数组。
下面代码使用e数组作为表,每次先看是否在表中有对应结果,如果有则直接使用,没有就按照递归计算,计算完成后同时记录结果到表中。
