一道关于环形交通枢纽(大转盘)的模拟题,但是根本与实际情况一点都不相符,反而有诸多难以理解的地方
数据规模不大,直接模拟交通情况计算最后时间即可,因此关键是如何用计算机建模来模拟车辆运行的情况
建模
大转盘可以被抽象为左边的图,外环4个节点叫做entry point,内环4个节点属于roundabout。车辆首先进入entry point,再进入中间的roundabout,按照箭头所示逆时针方向行进,到达对应方向的roundabout point,下一个时刻直接从图中离开。
用(a, b)分别表示内环和外环的节点状态,a[0], a[1], a[2], a[3]分别表示N, W, S, E方向上的节点, b同理
a[i]=0, 1, 2, 3分别表示在对应节点上存在一辆要去往N, W, S, E方向上的车辆; a[i]=4表示没有车, b同理
令seq[i]表示对应方向上的车辆进入entry point的等待队列(车辆不能一下子全部涌入entry point, 当车辆过多只能在图外的队列中排队等候)
初始状态(a, b) = ([4,4,4,4], [4,4,4,4])
规则
有了状态还需要设置系统运行的规则,最重要的是题目中的一句话:
A car decides whether to enter the roundabout based on its knowledge from the previous second
也就是说完全可以根据前一秒的状态推出下一秒的状态。具体规则不详细说了,见代码,要注意几个问题:
- roundabout的点和entry的点要做不同的处理
- 判断4个外环都有节点的锁死状态,在这种情况下北边外环节点移动的情况会变更
- 在所有图中的车辆都移动之后记得将等待队列的车辆加入图,如果可以的话
最后,按照时间来模拟直到所有车辆全部离开为止
吐槽
这道题的各种歧义也真是逗,不看例子几乎都搞不清这个模型是怎么运作的
A car has the right to enter only if there are no cars to its immediate left (either on the roundabout or waiting to get on the roundabout)
大转盘的immediate left是哪边?敢用顺时针方向么?
A roundabout has 4 entry points: from the North, East, South and West; and 4 exit points at the same locations (see Example 0 for a diagram)
自己的图exit points和entry points画重叠了么?那什么叫at the same locations?真不想说那个图了,画的好像以为一个地方可以待两辆车一样:一个进一个出
Cars can enter, leave or move one position on the roundabout. Each of those events requires one second.
如果以上动作都要花一秒的话,请告诉我为什么那个图Time=0的时候就有车了,难道我需要默认进场是瞬间完成的?
请告诉我车辆有可能相撞吗?什么,你说需要我自己去证明:在任何情况下两辆车都不可能相撞,或者不证明直接开始做题。
这道题跟那个vending machine的题真是一个尿性
