Flip Game
Description
Flip game is played on a rectangular 4x4 field with two-sided pieces placed on each of its 16 squares. One side of each piece is white and the other one is black and each piece is lying either it's black or white side up. Each round you flip 3 to 5 pieces,
thus changing the color of their upper side from black to white and vice versa. The pieces to be flipped are chosen every round according to the following rules:
Consider the following position as an example: bwbw wwww bbwb bwwb Here "b" denotes pieces lying their black side up and "w" denotes pieces lying their white side up. If we choose to flip the 1st piece from the 3rd row (this choice is shown at the picture), then the field will become: bwbw bwww wwwb wwwb The goal of the game is to flip either all pieces white side up or all pieces black side up. You are to write a program that will search for the minimum number of rounds needed to achieve this goal. Input
The input consists of 4 lines with 4 characters "w" or "b" each that denote game field position.
Output
Write to the output file a single integer number - the minimum number of rounds needed to achieve the goal of the game from the given position. If the goal is initially achieved, then write 0. If it's impossible to achieve the goal, then write the word "Impossible"
(without quotes).

我不得不说位运算是一个强大的东西,之前从来没怎么用过。没想到这么一道本来没有头绪的题,位运算一优化成了一道裸一维的BFS,说这个题目。大意是一个翻牌游戏。牌有黑白两面,当翻到全部的牌都是黑或都是白时,满足状态,输出最小操作步数。每一个位置的牌的都能够翻,但如过翻了当前这张牌。它的相邻的位置的牌都要翻过来。对于全部的状态。一共同拥有2^16种(4*4的图)
而对于翻牌操作,如果当前状态为s 想要翻第i个位置的牌。仅仅要s^=1<<i;就可以。
