有道翻译一下
程序员瓦西里喜欢浪漫,所以今年他决定用蜡烛照亮他的房间。
瓦西里有一支蜡烛。瓦西里点燃一根新蜡烛时,它先燃烧一小时,然后熄灭。瓦西里很聪明,所以他可以把b熄灭的蜡烛变成一支新的蜡烛。因此,这种新的蜡烛可以像其他任何新的蜡烛一样使用。
现在瓦西里想知道:如果他的行为最优,他的蜡烛能照亮房间几个小时?帮他找到这个号码。
考虑第一个示例。在最初的四个小时里,瓦西里点了几根新蜡烛,然后他用四根燃尽的蜡烛做了两根新蜡烛,并把它们点燃。当这些蜡烛熄灭(停止燃烧)时,瓦西里可以再做一支蜡烛。总的来说,Vasily可以点亮房间7个小时。

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
	int a, b, c, d;
	cin >> a >> b;
	d = a;
	while (d >= b)
	{
		c = d % b;
		d = d / b;
		a = a + d;
		//c = d % b;这个地方真是毒瘤。。。然后我就把他放到上面了。
		d = d + c;

	}

	cout << a << endl;
	//system("pause");
	return 0;
}
