POJ-3126-Prime Path-素数-BFS

本文介绍了一个有趣的算法问题:如何从一个四位素数通过改变一位数字到达另一个四位素数,每一步都保持数字为素数,并寻找最短路径。文章详细解释了使用埃拉托斯特尼筛法生成素数表的方法,以及利用广度优先搜索(BFS)策略来找到最优解。

Prime Path

添加链接描述
The ministers of the cabinet were quite upset by the message from the Chief of Security stating that they would all have to change the four-digit room numbers on their offices.
— It is a matter of security to change such things every now and then, to keep the enemy in the dark.
— But look, I have chosen my number 1033 for good reasons. I am the Prime minister, you know!
— I know, so therefore your new number 8179 is also a prime. You will just have to paste four new digits over the four old ones on your office door.
— No, it’s not that simple. Suppose that I change the first digit to an 8, then the number will read 8033 which is not a prime!
— I see, being the prime minister you cannot stand having a non-prime number on your door even for a few seconds.
— Correct! So I must invent a scheme for going from 1033 to 8179 by a path of prime numbers where only one digit is changed from one prime to the next prime.
Now, the minister of finance, who had been eavesdropping, intervened.
— No unnecessary expenditure, please! I happen to know that the price of a digit is one pound.
— Hmm, in that case I need a computer program to minimize the cost. You don’t know some very cheap software gurus, do you?
— In fact, I do. You see, there is this programming contest going on… Help the prime minister to find the cheapest prime path between any two given four-digit primes! The first digit must be nonzero, of course. Here is a solution in the case above.
1033
1733
3733
3739
3779
8779
8179
The cost of this solution is 6 pounds. Note that the digit 1 which got pasted over in step 2 can not be reused in the last step – a new 1 must be purchased.
Input
One line with a positive number: the number of test cases (at most 100). Then for each test case, one line with two numbers separated by a blank. Both numbers are four-digit primes (without leading zeros).
Output
One line for each case, either with a number stating the minimal cost or containing the word Impossible.
Sample Input

3
1033 8179
1373 8017
1033 1033

Sample Output

6
7
0

题意:将一个素数变成另一个素数,且每次只能变一个数字,而且变成的数字也必须是素数,问最少要多少步
解题思路:首先是判断素数,可以用埃式筛法做一个素数表,方便查询,然后可以用BFS求最小步数
