Codeforces Round #466 (Div. 2) B. Our Tanya is Crying Out Loud

B. Our Tanya is Crying Out Loud

Right now she actually isn't. But she will be, if you don't solve this problem.

You are given integers nkA and B. There is a number x, which is initially equal to n. You are allowed to perform two types of operations:

  1. Subtract 1 from x. This operation costs you A coins.
  2. Divide x by k. Can be performed only if x is divisible by k. This operation costs you B coins.
What is the minimum amount of coins you have to pay to make  x equal to  1?
Input

The first line contains a single integer n (1 ≤ n ≤ 2·109).

The second line contains a single integer k (1 ≤ k ≤ 2·109).

The third line contains a single integer A (1 ≤ A ≤ 2·109).

The fourth line contains a single integer B (1 ≤ B ≤ 2·109).

Output

Output a single integer — the minimum amount of coins you have to pay to make x equal to 1.

题意:给你一个n,让你把n变成1,每次有两种操作:减一花费A,除以k花费B(整除的前提下),问你最小花费。

思路:简单贪心,当不能整除时变成整除,此时只能减。当整除时,判断除的花费和减的花费,注意特判k==1的情况,防止死循环,因为这个TLE了一发。。。

#include<bits/stdc++.h>
#define ll long long
using namespace std;
ll n,k,a,b,ans;
int main()
{
    while(~scanf("%lld%lld%lld%lld",&n,&k,&a,&b))
    {
        if(k>n||k==1){printf("%lld\n",a*(n-1));continue;}
        ans=0;
        while(1)
        {
            if(n%k!=0)     //不能整除只能减法,减到整除为止
            {
                ans+=a*(n%k);
                n=n-(n%k);
            }
            if(n<k)   //此时只能减法,除法永远用不到,直接求解答案
            {
                ans+=a*(n-1);
                break;
            }
            if(n==1)break;
            ans+=min(a*(n-n/k),b);  //减法和除法取最小花费
            n/=k;
            if(n==1)break;
        }
        printf("%lld\n",ans);
    }
    return 0;
}
