PAT A 1046 Shortest Distance (20 分)

本文介绍了一种计算环形公路上两点间最短距离的方法,通过构造dist[]数组存储各出口间的距离,进而求解任意两点间的正向与逆向距离,最后选择最小值输出。代码实现使用了C++,包括读取输入、处理数据和输出结果。

一、思路

构造dist[],dist[i]为i号出口距离1号出口的公里数,同时dist[N]即为环形公路总公里数;
输入e1,e2(若e2<e1则交换),由于公路是环形,则dist[e2] - dist[e1]即两出口间沿正向的距离,而dist[N] - (dist[e2] - dist[e1])即为两出口间沿逆向的距离;
逐个求解会出现测试点2超时

二、代码

#include <cstdio>
#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
    int N, M;
    scanf("%d", &N);
    vector<int> dist(N + 2, 0);
    for( int i = 1, d; i <= N; ++i )
    {
        scanf("%d", &d);
        dist[i + 1] = dist[i] + d;
    }
    scanf("%d", &M);
    for( int i = 0, e1, e2, d; i < M; ++i )
    {
        scanf("%d %d", &e1, &e2);
        if( e1 > e2 )
            swap(e1, e2);
        printf("%d\n", min( dist[e2] - dist[e1], dist[N + 1] - dist[e2] + dist[e1] ));
    }
}

Every year the cows hold an event featuring a peculiar version of hopscotch that involves carefully jumping from rock to rock in a river. The excitement takes place on a long, straight river with a rock at the start and another rock at the end, L units away from the start (1 ≤ L ≤ 1,000,000,000). Along the river between the starting and ending rocks, N (0 ≤ N ≤ 50,000) more rocks appear, each at an integral distance Di from the start (0 < Di < L). To play the game, each cow in turn starts at the starting rock and tries to reach the finish at the ending rock, jumping only from rock to rock. Of course, less agile cows never make it to the final rock, ending up instead in the river. Farmer John is proud of his cows and watches this event each year. But as time goes by, he tires of watching the timid cows of the other farmers limp across the short distances between rocks placed too closely together. He plans to remove several rocks in order to increase the shortest distance a cow will have to jump to reach the end. He knows he cannot remove the starting and ending rocks, but he calculates that he has enough resources to remove up to M rocks (0 ≤ M ≤ N). FJ wants to know exactly how much he can increase the shortest distance *before* he starts removing the rocks. Help Farmer John determine the greatest possible shortest distance a cow has to jump after removing the optimal set of M rocks. Input Line 1: Three space-separated integers: L, N, and M Lines 2..N+1: Each line contains a single integer indicating how far some rock is away from the starting rock. No two rocks share the same position. Output Line 1: A single integer that is the maximum of the shortest distance a cow has to jump after removing M rocks Sample Inputcopy Outputcopy 25 5 2 2 14 11 21 17 4 Hint Before removing any rocks, the shortest jump was a jump of 2 from 0 (the start) to 2. After removing the rocks at 2 and 14, the shortest required jump is a jump of 4 (from 17 to 21 or from 21 to 25).
