CF 343A Rational Resistance

                                                                                   A. Rational Resistance

Description

Mad scientist Mike is building a time machine in his spare time. To finish the work, he needs a resistor with a certain resistance value.

However, all Mike has is lots of identical resistors with unit resistance R0 = 1. Elements with other resistance can be constructed from these resistors. In this problem, we will consider the following as elements:

  1. one resistor;
  2. an element and one resistor plugged in sequence;
  3. an element and one resistor plugged in parallel.

With the consecutive connection the resistance of the new element equals R = Re + R0. With the parallel connection the resistance of the new element equals . In this case Re equals the resistance of the element being connected.

Mike needs to assemble an element with a resistance equal to the fraction . Determine the smallest possible number of resistors he needs to make such an element.

Input

The single input line contains two space-separated integers a and b (1 ≤ a, b ≤ 1018). It is guaranteed that the fraction  is irreducible. It is guaranteed that a solution always exists.

Output

Print a single number — the answer to the problem.

Please do not use the %lld specifier to read or write 64-bit integers in С++. It is recommended to use the cin, cout streams or the %I64d specifier.

Note

In the first sample, one resistor is enough.

In the second sample one can connect the resistors in parallel, take the resulting element and connect it to a third resistor consecutively. Then, we get an element with resistance . We cannot make this element using two resistors.

解题思路

           这个题目还是有点麻烦的,没有想到方法真的不好写。

           注意到我们可以将一个电阻为   的电阻分为 a/b 和 两个电阻串联得到,又因为 a/b 为整数,因此串联 a/b 个电阻为1的电阻即可

            唯一麻烦的就是 , 不过这里有一个特点,我们记任意两个电阻大小为 x1 , x2 ,大小为  的电阻可以看作大小为1的电阻先进行x1和x2次串联分别得到两个大小为 x1和x2 的电阻,然后将 x1 和 x2 并联得到大小为 的电阻,一共操作 x1 + x2 + 1 次,然后我们考虑大小为  的电阻,这个电阻可以看作是大小为 和 的电阻串联得到,而和  分别由 x2 和 x1 个大小为 1的电阻并联所得,总操作次数也是 x1 + x2 + 1 次

            这样一来就说明获得大小为  的电阻和获取大小为 的电阻操作次数一致,那么我们获取 和获取 需要的操作次数一样,这样一来,我们又可以将  的电阻拆分为 b/ (a%b) 和 两个电阻的串联,重复最开始的操作,直到分子部分为1或者0,记此时需要获取的电阻为  ,如果y == 1 ,说明目前获取的是 大小的电阻,这个我们让x个大小为1的电阻并联即可得到,如果 y == 0 ,那么显然,这个电阻是不需要获取的。

		{
			if (n < m)
