Description
You, the best hacker in the world, want to download the books published on Google Book. After some investigation, you found that the address of each page consists of two parts. The first part is the page number, the second part is the signature which is unique for each page. To get the signature, you can send the query to the server. The query has one parameter, which indicates the page number. The server will return the signature of the required page, and it may also return the signature of some adjacent pages.
To minimize the bytes downloaded from the internet, and also make the server adminstrator hard to notice your "hack", you'd like to minimize the number of queries
Input
The input has multiple cases.
The first line of the input is a single integer T which is the number of test cases. Then T consecutive test cases follow. In each test case, the first line is a number N (1<=N<=5000), indicating the number of pages of the book. Then n lines follows. On the i-th line, there will be two integers ai and bi (ai<=i<=bi). They indicate that the query for the i-th page will return the signatures from page ai to page bi (inclusive)
Output
Results should be directed to standard output. The output of each test case should be a single integer, which is the minimum number of queries to get all the signatures.
Sample Input
2 3 1 1 2 2 3 3 3 1 1 1 3 3 3
Sample Output
3 1
题意:每张纸要查询的时候需要从ai到bi,包含bi, 问你最少询问几次,能将从1~n的纸张都查完。
说来说去,这道题就是纯粹的区间覆盖问题。
所谓的区间覆盖就是找最少的区间将制定的区间覆盖掉。解法是:将ai(i:1~n)从大到小排序,相同的再按bi从大到小排序。
具体做法看代码
