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?
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
4
Hint
The 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.
tips:广搜入门题目。感觉广搜比深搜容易理解一点,因为不用递归,递归太过于抽象,也难debug。
数轴上,要从n到k去,每次三种变换坐标的方法(n+1,n-1,n*2)
用队列储存n,然后出队n,进队三个新坐标,如此循环,每次进队都要判断新坐标和k是否相等,不相等就step[next] = step[head] + 1;相等则return step[next]。
#include <bits/stdc++.h> using namespace std; #define maxn 100001 queue<int>q; int step[maxn]; int vis[maxn]; int bfs(int n, int k){ int head,next; q.push(n);//进队 step[n] = 0;//步数初值为0 vis[n] = 1;//标记这个点已经走过了 while(!q.empty()){ head = q.front();//把队首(n)的值赋给head,这一步必须放在循环外面。不然三个坐标会尝试三次。 q.pop();//出队 for(int i = 0; i < 3; i++){ if(i == 0) next = head-1; else if(i == 1) next = head+1; else next = 2*head;//三个新坐标 if(next > maxn || next < 0) continue;//考虑越界 if(!vis[next]){ q.push(next);//next进队 step[next] = step[head] + 1;//步数+1,ps,这里用的step[head]+1,在每次循环的时候,他的初始值是一样的。 vis[next] = 1;//标记为旧点 } if(k == next) return step[next]; } } } int main(){ int n,k; cin>>n>>k; memset(vis,0,sizeof(vis)); memset(step,0,sizeof(step)); while(!q.empty()) q.pop(); if(n>k) cout<<n-k<<endl; else cout<<bfs(n,k)<<endl; return 0; }
