题目名称:Catch That Cow
题目链接:http://poj.org/problem?id=3278
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?

Hint
题意:一个农民追牛,每次可以走-1或1步和走2*x步,问追上的最短时间
思路:
1. X往左走当X小于0的时候,2*X不可能大于0了,所以X-1的极限是X-1 >= 0。
2. X往右走当X大于K的时候,不管是2*X还是X-1只会增加到达K的步数,所以X+1的极限是X+1 <= k。
3. 当X>K的时候,2*X也只会增加X到达点K的步数,所以2*X的极限是X<K。
代码如下:
#include<cstdio>
#include<iostream>
#include<cstring>
#include<algorithm>
#include<queue>
using namespace std;
struct Node
{
int x,sum;
};
Node tmp,now;
int n,k;
bool vis[1000005];
queue<Node> q;
void bfs()
{
while(!q.empty())
q.pop();
q.push(tmp);
while(!q.empty())
{
Node now=q.front();
q.pop();
if(now.x==k)
{
printf("%d\n",now.sum);
return;
}
if(now.x-1>=0&&!vis[now.x-1])
{
vis[now.x-1]=true;
tmp.x=now.x-1;
tmp.sum=now.sum+1;
q.push(tmp);
}
if(now.x+1<=k&&!vis[now.x+1])
{
vis[now.x+1]=true;
tmp.x=now.x+1;
tmp.sum=now.sum+1;
q.push(tmp);
}
if(now.x<=k&&now.x*2<=100000&&!vis[now.x*2])
{
vis[now.x*2]=true;
tmp.x=now.x*2;
tmp.sum=now.sum+1;
q.push(tmp);
}
}
}
int main()
{
while(scanf("%d%d",&n,&k)!=EOF)
{
memset(vis,false,sizeof(vis));
tmp.x=n;
tmp.sum=0;
bfs();
}
return 0;
}
