BIO '98 - Richard Forster
A pair of cows is loose somewhere in the forest. Farmer John is lending his expertise to their capture. Your task is to model their behavior.
The chase takes place on a 10 by 10 planar grid. Squares can be empty or they can contain:
- an obstacle,
- the cows (who always travel together), or
- Farmer John.
The cows and Farmer John can occupy the same square (when they `meet') but neither the cows nor Farmer John can share a square with an obstacle.
Each square is
|
Here is a sample grid: *...*..... ......*... ...*...*.. .......... ...*.F.... *.....*... ...*...... ..C......* ...*.*.... .*.*...... |
The cows wander around the grid in a fixed way. Each minute, they either move forward or rotate. Normally, they move one square in the direction they are facing. If there is an obstacle in the way or they would leave the board by walking `forward', then they spend the entire minute rotating 90 degrees clockwise.
Farmer John, wise in the ways of cows, moves in exactly the same way.
The farmer and the cows can be considered to move simultaneously during each minute. If the farmer and the cows pass each other while moving, they are not considered to have met. The chase ends when Farmer John and the cows occupy the same square at the end of a minute.
Read a ten-line grid that represents the initial state of the cows, Farmer John, and obstacles. Each of the ten lines contains exactly ten characters using the coding above. There is guaranteed to be only one farmer and one pair of cows. The cows and Farmer John will not initially be on the same square.
Calculate the number of minutes until the cows and Farmer John meet. Assume both the cows and farmer begin the simulation facing in the `north' direction. Print 0 if they will never meet.

题意:
给出一个 10 X 10 的地图,给出每个点的状态,F 代表 famer 的位置,C 代表 cow 的位置,* 代表障碍物,. 代表通道。F 和C 同时运动,输出他们相遇时候的步数。每次他们只会朝着一个方向走,一开始朝南,后碰到障碍物或者边界则换方向,方向沿顺时针转 90°。若无法相遇则输出 0 。转方向过程也算一个步数。
思路:
技巧模拟。用 dir = (dir + 1 ) % 4 来模拟旋转的情况,旋转的时候也算一个时间,故不用更新该点的位置,只是更新方向。每个点都有4个方向的状态,那么一共有4 * 10 * 10 = 400种状态,两个点那么最多也只会走 400 * 400 = 160000 次。故循环完160000还未找到的话,永远也就不会再找到了。
