The Eight Puzzle, among other sliding-tile puzzles, is one of the famous problems in artificial intelligence. Along with chess, tic-tac-toe and backgammon, it has been used to study search algorithms.
The Eight Puzzle can be generalized into an M × N Puzzle where at least one of M and N is odd. The puzzle is constructed with MN − 1 sliding tiles with each a number from 1 to MN − 1 on it packed into a M by N frame with one tile missing. For example, with M = 4 and N = 3, a puzzle may look like:
1
6
2
4
0
3
7
5
9
10
8
11
Let's call missing tile 0. The only legal operation is to exchange 0 and the tile with which it shares an edge. The goal of the puzzle is to find a sequence of legal operations that makes it look like:
1
2
3
4
5
6

GOAL
Given an M × N puzzle, you are to determine whether it can be solved.
Input
The input consists of multiple test cases. Each test case starts with a line containing M and N (2 ≤ M, N ≤ 999). This line is followed by M lines containing N numbers each describing an M × N puzzle.
The input ends with a pair of zeroes which should not be processed.
Output
Output one line for each test case containing a single word YES if the puzzle can be solved and NO otherwise.
Sample Input
3 3
1 0 3
4 2 5
7 8 6
4 3
1 2 5
4 6 9
11 8 10
3 7 0
0 0
Sample Output
YES
NO
题意:给你一个m*n的矩阵,0代表空,0位置可以和上下左右位置交换,问是否可以变成1~m*n-1顺序排列且0在第m*n的位置的图,看上面例子。
思路:这就是一个奇数码问题的扩展,我们将其看成一条链,将0去除。
①对于n的奇数码问题,我们知道若能从一个图转换成另一张图,只需要比较两个图的逆序对奇偶性是否相同即可。(上下交换,交换n-1个数,n-1为偶数,不影响逆序对奇偶性)
②对于n的偶数码问题,我们左右交换依然不增减逆序对,但是上下交换,将交换n-1个数,n-1为奇数,将改变逆序对奇偶性,我们需要判断 【一个图的逆序对+空位置行的差值】与【另一图的逆序对】
