Description
When a radio station is broadcasting over a very large area, repeaters are used to retransmit the signal so that every receiver has a strong signal. However, the channels used by each repeater must be carefully chosen so that nearby repeaters do not interfere with one another. This condition is satisfied if adjacent repeaters use different channels.
Since the radio frequency spectrum is a precious resource, the number of channels required by a given network of repeaters should be minimised. You have to write a program that reads in a description of a repeater network and determines the minimum number of channels required.

Input
The input consists of a number of maps of repeater networks. Each map begins with a line containing the number of repeaters. This is between 1 and 26, and the repeaters are referred to by consecutive upper-case letters of the alphabet starting with A. For example, ten repeaters would have the names A,B,C,...,I and J. A network with zero repeaters indicates the end of input.
Following the number of repeaters is a list of adjacency relationships. Each line has the form:
A:BCDH
which indicates that the repeaters B, C, D and H are adjacent to the repeater A. The first line describes those adjacent to repeater A, the second those adjacent to B, and so on for all of the repeaters. If a repeater is not adjacent to any other, its line has the form
A:
The repeaters are listed in alphabetical order.
Note that the adjacency is a symmetric relationship; if A is adjacent to B, then B is necessarily adjacent to A. Also, since the repeaters lie in a plane, the graph formed by connecting adjacent repeaters does not have any line segments that cross.

Output
For each map (except the final one with no repeaters), print a line containing the minumum number of channels needed so that no adjacent channels interfere. The sample output shows the format of this line. Take care that channels is in the singular form when only one channel is required.
Sample Input
2 A: B: 4 A:BC B:ACD C:ABD D:BC 4 A:BCD B:ACD C:ABD D:ABC 0
Sample Output
1 channel needed. 3 channels needed. 4 channels needed. 解题思路:这是一个四色问题,运用四色定理可知道: 1:所有的转发器互不相邻,只要一种颜色; 2:用2或3种颜色去着色,看看是否成果。如果都不能实现着色,那就是4种颜色#include <iostream> #include <cstdio> #include <algorithm> #include <cstring> using namespace std; bool cMap[30][30]; //存放无向图 int used[50]; //标记已经使用的颜色 int n; bool Dfs(int id,int color) //id是起始着色的节点,color是限制的着色数量 { int i,j; bool flag; //着色成功的标志 for(i=0;i<color;i++) //在规定的颜色数中着色 { flag=true; used[id]=i; //节点id使用第i号颜色 for(j=0;j<id;j++) //判断相邻节点是否使用了该颜色 { if(cMap[id][j]&&used[id]==used[j]) { flag=false; //该颜色已经使用,换一种颜色 break; } } if(flag&&(id==n-1||Dfs(id+1,color))) //该颜色有效,当所有节点着色完毕返回true,或者给下一个节点着色 return true; } return false; } int main() { //freopen("in.txt","r",stdin); int i,j; char adjacent[50]; while(scanf("%d",&n)!=EOF&&n!=0) { memset(cMap,0,sizeof(cMap)); memset(used,0,sizeof(used)); bool one=true; for(i=0;i<n;i++) { scanf("%s",adjacent); for(j=2;adjacent[j]!=0;j++,one=false) { cMap[i][adjacent[j]-'A']=true; cMap[adjacent[j]-'A'][i]=true; } } if(one) printf("1 channel needed.\n"); else if(Dfs(1,2)) printf("2 channels needed.\n"); else if(Dfs(1,3)) printf("3 channels needed.\n"); else printf("4 channels needed.\n"); } return 0; }
