uva10025 The ? 1 ? 2 ? ... ? n = k problem

本文讨论了如何通过在一系列整数间插入加号或减号来达到给定的目标值,着重于找到实现这一目标所需的最小元素数量。通过预处理和查找技巧,文章提供了解决此类问题的方法。

10025 The ? 1 ? 2 ? … ? n = k problem
Given the following formula, one can set operators ‘+’ or ‘-’ instead of each ‘?’, in order to obtain a given k ?1?2?…?n = k
For example: to obtain k = 12, the expression to be used will be:
- 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 - 7 = 12
with n = 7
Input
The first line is the number of test cases, followed by a blank line. Each test case of the input contains an integer k (0 ≤|k|≤ 1000000000). Each test case will be separated by a single line.
Output For each test case, your program should print the minimal possible n (1 ≤ n) to obtain k with the above formula. Print a blank line between the outputs for two consecutive test cases.

首先预处理下,然后找到题目给出的计算结果位于的区间,由于数列中使用减号可以组合出任意的偶数,所以就查找与答案差的值为偶数的最小的那个数

#include<iostream>
#include<algorithm>
#include<map>
#include<cstdio>
#include<cstdlib>
#include<vector>
#include<cmath>
#include<cstring>
#include<string>
using namespace std;
const int maxn=54723;
typedef long long LL;

LL sum[maxn];

void work(LL n){
    if(n==0){printf("3\n");return ;}
    if(n<0)n=-n;
    int high=lower_bound(sum,sum+maxn,n)-sum;
    int ans=high;
    while((sum[ans]-n)%2!=0)ans++;
    printf("%d\n",ans);
}
int main(){
//    #ifndef ONLINE_JUDGE
//    freopen("Text//in.txt","r",stdin);
//    #endif // ONLINE_JUDGE
    sum[0]=0;
    for(int i=1;i<maxn;i++){
        sum[i]=sum[i-1]+(LL)i;
    }
    int T;
    scanf("%d",&T);
    while(T--){
        LL n;
        scanf("%lld",&n);
        work(n);
        if(T>0)puts("");
    }
    return 0;
}
