题目描述

We have a board with a 2×N grid. Snuke covered the board with N dominoes without overlaps. Here, a domino can cover a 1×2 or 2×1 square.
Then, Snuke decided to paint these dominoes using three colors: red, cyan and green. Two dominoes that are adjacent by side should be painted by different colors. Here, it is not always necessary to use all three colors.
Find the number of such ways to paint the dominoes, modulo 1000000007.
The arrangement of the dominoes is given to you as two strings S1 and S2 in the following manner:
Each domino is represented by a different English letter (lowercase or uppercase).
The j-th character in Si represents the domino that occupies the square at the i-th row from the top and j-th column from the left.

Constraints
1≤N≤52
|S1|=|S2|=N
S1 and S2 consist of lowercase and uppercase English letters.
S1 and S2 represent a valid arrangement of dominoes.

题解

由于区域的宽度只有2,且每个多米诺骨牌也只能占据连续的两格,因此对于任意一列而言,只有两种摆法,竖着1个或者横着两个。
因此,通过数学规律可以计算出涂色的可能性。

代码

#include 
#include 

#define ull unsigned long long
#define MO 1000000007

using namespace std;
int n, k, c;
string s1, s2;
ull ans;

int main() {
    ios::sync_with_stdio(false);
    cin.tie(nullptr);
    cout.tie(nullptr);

    cin >> n >> s1 >> s2;
    if (s1[0] == s2[0])c = 1, ans = 3; else c = 2, ans = 6;
    k = c;
    while (k < n) {
        if (s1[k] == s2[k]) {
            ans *= 3 - c;
            c = 1;
        } else {
            ans *= c + 1;
            c = 2;//Skip 2
        }
        k += c;
        ans %= MO;
    }
    cout << ans;
    return 0;
}
