Problem Description
Farmer John has been informed of the location of a fugitive cow and wants to catch her immediately. He starts at a point N (0 ≤ N ≤ 100,000) on a number line and the cow is at a point K (0 ≤ K ≤ 100,000) on the same number line. Farmer John has two modes of transportation: walking and teleporting.
* Walking: FJ can move from any point X to the points X - 1 or X + 1 in a single minute
* Teleporting: FJ can move from any point X to the point 2 × X in a single minute.
If the cow, unaware of its pursuit, does not move at all, how long does it take for Farmer John to retrieve it?
* Walking: FJ can move from any point X to the points X - 1 or X + 1 in a single minute
* Teleporting: FJ can move from any point X to the point 2 × X in a single minute.
If the cow, unaware of its pursuit, does not move at all, how long does it take for Farmer John to retrieve it?
Input
Line 1: Two space-separated integers: N and K
Output
Line 1: The least amount of time, in minutes, it takes for Farmer John to catch the fugitive cow.
Sample Input
5 17
Sample Output
4HintThe fastest way for Farmer John to reach the fugitive cow is to move along the following path: 5-10-9-18-17, which takes 4 minutes.
题意:有两个数n和m,问n变成m至少用几个步骤,有三个步骤(n-1),(n+1),(n*2)
代码如下:
#include<cstdio>
#include<cstring>
#include<queue>
using namespace std;
#define max 100010
int vis[max*2];
void bfs(int n,int m)
{
int i,now,end;
memset(vis,0,sizeof(vis));
queue<int>q;
q.push(n);
while(!q.empty())
{
now=q.front();
q.pop();
if(now==m)
break;
for(i=0;i<3;++i)
{
if(i==0)
end=now+1;
if(i==1)
end=now-1;
if(i==2)
end=now*2;
if(end>=0&&end<max&&!vis[end])
{
vis[end]=vis[now]+1;
q.push(end);
}
}
}
printf("%d\n",vis[m]);
}
int main()
{
int n,m;
while(scanf("%d%d",&n,&m)!=EOF)
bfs(n,m);
return 0;
}
