Problem 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?

 

Input

Line 1: Two space-separated integers: N and K

 

Output

Line 1: The least amount of time, in minutes, it takes for Farmer John to catch the fugitive cow.

 

Sample Input

5 17

 

Sample Output

4
Hint
The fastest way for Farmer John to reach the fugitive cow is to move along the following path: 5-10-9-18-17, which takes 4 minutes.
 

 

题意：给一个农夫的坐标和奶牛的坐标   农夫可以走的路径有三种  x-1,x+1,2*x;（不过这题没说农夫的坐标一定小于奶牛的，试了一下考虑不考虑都能A）

             是一道简单的搜索bfs，才做没往搜索想，一直想着暴力  还是做的题少学得算法少 不管做什么题开始总想暴力 根本想不到用什么算法  只有仔细思考才能看出来

代码：

         

#include<stdio.h>#include<string.h>#include<queue>#define INF 100005using namespace std;int n,m;int d[200005];int bfs(int n,int m){    queue<int>q;    q.push(n);    d[n]=0;    while(!q.empty())    {        int p=q.front();        q.pop();        if(p==m)        {            break;        }        for(int i=0; i<3; i++)        {            int nx;            if(i==0)            {                nx=p+1;            }            if(i==1)            {               nx=p-1;            }            if(i==2)            {                 nx=p*2;            }            if(nx>=0&&nx<=INF&&d[nx]==INF)            {                q.push(nx);                d[nx]=d[p]+1;            }        }    }    return d[m];}int main(){    while(~scanf("%d%d",&n,&m))    {          for(int i=0;i<=INF;i++)          {              d[i]=INF;          }           int ans= bfs(n,m);            printf("%d\n",ans);    }}
