Catch That Cow(C语言)

农夫约翰得知一头逃犯奶牛的位置,他从数轴上的点N出发,目标是点K。FJ有两种移动方式:步行和瞬移。通过BFS广度优先搜索,寻找最短时间路径来捕捉奶牛。样例输入5和17,输出为4,表示FJ需要4分钟抓到奶牛。解题关键在于避免解答树的无限深入和剪枝。详情见解题思路链接。

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?
