The task is really simple: given N exits on a highway which forms a simple cycle, you are supposed to tell the shortest distance between any pair of exits.
Input Specification:
Each input file contains one test case. For each case, the first line contains an integer N (in [3,105]), followed by N integer distances D1D2⋯ D
N, where D i is the distance between the i-th and the (i+1)-st exits, and D
N is between the N-th and the 1st exits. All the numbers in a line are separated by a space. The second line gives a positive integer M (≤10
4), with M lines follow, each contains a pair of exit numbers, provided that the exits are numbered from 1 to N. It is guaranteed that the total round trip distance is no more than 107.
Output Specification:
For each test case, print your results in M lines, each contains the shortest distance between the corresponding given pair of exits.

**题目大意:**给出各点间的距离,求两点间最短距离;
思路:题目中所有点构成一个环,先忽略点n到点1的那条路径,用数组dist记录每个点到点1的距离,两点v1,v2,并将所有距离相加记录总距离sum;最后,输出min(dist[v2]-dist[v1], sum-(dist[v2]-dist[v1]));
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
int main() {
int n, m, sum = 0;
cin >> n;
vector<int> dict(n+1); // 下标从1开始
dict[1] = 0; // 1到1的距离为0;
for (int i=1; i<=n; i++) {
int tmp;
cin >> tmp;
sum += tmp;
if (i != n) {
dict[i+1] = sum; // i+1到点1的距离
}
}
cin >> m;
int v1, v2;
for (int i=0; i<m; i++) {
cin >> v1 >> v2;
if (v1 > v2) swap(v1, v2);
cout << min(dict[v2]-dict[v1], sum - (dict[v2]-dict[v1])) << endl;
}
return 0;
}
