CodeForces 638A Home Numbers

本文介绍了一种算法,用于计算从街道起点到达指定房屋所需的最短时间。该算法适用于一条直线上等距分布的偶数个房屋,其中奇数编号的房屋位于街道一侧,按从左到右顺序排列;偶数编号的房屋位于另一侧,按从右到左顺序排列。

题意:有n个房子,现在左边是 1 3 5 7 9 这样的,右边是 n n-2 n-4 n-6 ... 2这样的,然后问你x房子离起点的距离是多少

思路:分奇偶判一下就行了


#include<bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    int n,x;
    cin>>n>>x;
    if(x%2==1)
        cout<<x/2+1<<endl;
    else
        cout<<(n+2-x)/2<<endl;
}

Description

The main street of Berland is a straight line with n houses built along it (n is an even number). The houses are located at both sides of the street. The houses with odd numbers are at one side of the street and are numbered from 1 to n - 1 in the order from the beginning of the street to the end (in the picture: from left to right). The houses with even numbers are at the other side of the street and are numbered from 2 to n in the order from the end of the street to its beginning (in the picture: from right to left). The corresponding houses with even and odd numbers are strictly opposite each other, that is, house 1 is opposite house n, house 3 is opposite house n - 2, house 5 is opposite house n - 4 and so on.

Vasya needs to get to house number a as quickly as possible. He starts driving from the beginning of the street and drives his car to house a. To get from the beginning of the street to houses number 1 and n, he spends exactly 1 second. He also spends exactly one second to drive the distance between two neighbouring houses. Vasya can park at any side of the road, so the distance between the beginning of the street at the houses that stand opposite one another should be considered the same.

Your task is: find the minimum time Vasya needs to reach house a.

Input

The first line of the input contains two integers, n and a (1 ≤ a ≤ n ≤ 100 000) — the number of houses on the street and the number of the house that Vasya needs to reach, correspondingly. It is guaranteed that number n is even.

Output

Print a single integer — the minimum time Vasya needs to get from the beginning of the street to house a.
