Problem Statement
NOTE: This problem statement contains subscripts that may not display properly if viewed outside of the applet.
Let's consider an infinite sequence A defined as follows:
A0 = 1;
Ai = A[i/p] + A[i/q] for all i >= 1, where [x] denotes the floor function of x. (see Notes)
You will be given n, p and q. Return the n-th element of A (index is 0-based).Definition
Class:
InfiniteSequence
Method:
calc
Parameters:
long long, int, int
Returns:
long long
Method signature:
long long calc(long long n, int p, int q)
(be sure your method is public)Notes
- [x] denotes the floor function of x which returns the highest integer less than or equal to x. For example, [3.4] = 3, [0.6] = 0.Constraints
- n will be between 0 and 10^12, inclusive.
- p and q will both be between 2 and 10^9, inclusive.Examples

解法:
1. 直接递归可能导致栈溢出, 因此使用map保存中间已经计算出的结果
2. 交换p & q, 可以减少递归的深度
探讨了一个数学问题,定义了一个无限序列A,其中A0=1,对于所有i>=1,Ai=A[i/p]+A[i/q]。通过递归算法结合缓存策略解决了该问题,确保了即使在大数情况下也能高效计算。
