The Water Bowls

Description
The cows have a line of 20 water bowls from which they drink. The bowls can be either right-side-up (properly oriented to serve refreshing cool water) or upside-down (a position which holds no water). They want all 20 water bowls to be right-side-up and thus use their wide snouts to flip bowls.
Their snouts, though, are so wide that they flip not only one bowl but also the bowls on either side of that bowl (a total of three or -- in the case of either end bowl -- two bowls).
Given the initial state of the bowls (1=undrinkable, 0=drinkable -- it even looks like a bowl), what is the minimum number of bowl flips necessary to turn all the bowls right-side-up?

Input
Line 1: A single line with 20 space-separated integers
Output
Line 1: The minimum number of bowl flips necessary to flip all the bowls right-side-up (i.e., to 0). For the inputs given, it will always be possible to find some combination of flips that will manipulate the bowls to 20 0's.

Hint
Explanation of the sample:
Flip bowls 4, 9, and 11 to make them all drinkable:
0 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 [initial state]
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 [after flipping bowl 4]
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 [after flipping bowl 9]
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 [after flipping bowl 11]

这个题实际上和POj 1753 Flip Game(http://poj.org/problem?id=1753)是一样的,而且比那个题还容易了一些,也是看了半天才弄明白,首先题目上说明最小步数保证小于20,那么我们就可以按步数从0到20枚举,然后深搜(其实我也不明白到底是深搜还是广搜,弄迷了),一旦有一个符合条件即退出,这样得到的步数就一定是最小步数了,废话少说,直接贴代码和测试数据:
#include<stdio.h>
int num[21],step,flag;
int range()
{
int i;
for(i=0;i<20;i++)
if(num[i]==1)
return 0;
return 1;
}
void turn(int i)
{
num[i]=!num[i];
if(i>0)
num[i-1]=!num[i-1];
if(i<19)num[i+1]=!num[i+1];
}
void DFS(int i,int dp)
{
if(step==dp){
flag=range();
return;
}
if(i>=20||flag)return;
turn(i);
DFS(i+1,dp+1);
turn(i);
DFS(i+1,dp);
}
int main()
{
int i;
for(i=0;i<20;i++)
scanf("%d",&num[i]);
for(step=0;step<20;step++)
{
flag=0;
DFS(0,0);
if(flag)break;
}
printf("%d\n",step);
return 0;
}
