The task is really simple: given N exits on a highway which forms a simple cycle, you are supposed to tell the shortest distance between any pair of exits.
Input Specification:
Each input file contains one test case. For each case, the first line contains an integer N (in [3]), followed by Ninteger distances D1 D2 ⋯ DN, where Di is the distance between the i-th and the (-st exits, and DN is between the N-th and the 1st exits. All the numbers in a line are separated by a space. The second line gives a positive integer M(≤), with M lines follow, each contains a pair of exit numbers, provided that the exits are numbered from 1 to N. It is guaranteed that the total round trip distance is no more than 1.
Output Specification:
For each test case, print your results in M lines, each contains the shortest distance between the corresponding given pair of exits.
Sample Input:
5 1 2 4 14 9
3
1 3
2 5
4 1
Sample Output:
3 10 7
思路:
•数据构成环,使用dis[i]存储i+1点到第1个点的距离,比较dis[right-1]-dis[left-1]和sum-(dis[right-1]-dis[left-1])得到shortest distance,此时时间复杂度是O(1);
•不存在顺序问题,当左大右小时,swap(left,right);
•数组存储时将第一个点到第一个点存在了dis[0],转一圈的距离存到dis[n];
以上参考《算法笔记》和我自己的理解(*/ω\*)
