Vasily has a candles.When Vasily lights up a new candle, it first burns for an hour and then it goes out. Vasily is smart, so he can make b went out candles into a new candle. As a result, this new candle can be used like any other new candle.

Now Vasily wonders: for how many hours can his candles light up the room if he acts optimally well? Help him find this number.

问题简述:

第一行:两个整数a(拥有的蜡烛),b(可以用b支烧完的蜡烛做一支新蜡烛)。
一支蜡烛可以燃烧一个小时,问:最多燃烧几个小时?

程序说明:

AC通过的C语言程序如下:

#include<stdio.h>
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;

int main ()
{
//s  可以制造的蜡烛  y  制造完剩下的没制造的蜡烛尸体  
	int a,b,s,y;
	scanf("%d%d",&a,&b);
	s=a;
	while(s/b>0)//如果可以造蜡烛
	{
		a = a+s/b;//加上新蜡烛
		y = s%b;//制造完剩下的没制造的蜡烛尸体
		s = s/b+y;//所有尸体
	}
	printf("%d",a);
	return 0;
