Eight (HDU - 1043)

题面

The 15-puzzle has been around for over 100 years; even if you don’t know it by that name, you’ve seen it. It is constructed with 15 sliding tiles, each with a number from 1 to 15 on it, and all packed into a 4 by 4 frame with one tile missing. Let’s call the missing tile ‘x’; the object of the puzzle is to arrange the tiles so that they are ordered as:

1 1  2  3  4
2 5  6  7  8
3 9 10 11 12
413 14 15  x

where the only legal operation is to exchange ‘x’ with one of the tiles with which it shares an edge. As an example, the following sequence of moves solves a slightly scrambled puzzle:

1 1  2  3  4     1  2  3  4     1  2  3  4     1  2  3  4
2 5  6  7  8     5  6  7  8     5  6  7  8     5  6  7  8
3 9  x 10 12     9 10  x 12     9 10 11 12     9 10 11 12
413 14 11 15    13 14 11 15    13 14  x 15    13 14 15  x
5            r->            d->            r->

The letters in the previous row indicate which neighbor of the ‘x’ tile is swapped with the ‘x’ tile at each step; legal values are ‘r’,’l’,‘u’ and ’d’, for right, left, up, and down, respectively.

Not all puzzles can be solved; in 1870, a man named Sam Loyd was famous for distributing an unsolvable version of the puzzle, and frustrating many people. In fact, all you have to do to make a regular puzzle into an unsolvable one is to swap two tiles (not counting the missing ‘x’ tile, of course).

In this problem, you will write a program for solving the less well-known 8-puzzle, composed of tiles on a three by three arrangement.

输入

You will receive, several descriptions of configuration of the 8 puzzle. One description is just a list of the tiles in their initial positions, with the rows listed from top to bottom, and the tiles listed from left to right within a row, where the tiles are represented by numbers 1 to 8, plus ‘x’. For example, this puzzle

1 2 3 x 4 6 7 5 8

is described by this list:

1 2 3 x 4 6 7 5 8

输出

You will print to standard output either the word ``unsolvable’’, if the puzzle has no solution, or a string consisting entirely of the letters ‘r’, ’l’, ‘u’ and ’d’ that describes a series of moves that produce a solution. The string should include no spaces and start at the beginning of the line. Do not print a blank line between cases.

提示

思路

考虑多次bfs会TLE,而目标状态是确定的,且由此bfs出的所有状态也是有限的(9!),所以这题不是bfs直接搜出来的,而是bfs打表。 暂时没用康拓展开,不过最好去看看,同时感兴趣的圣雄甘地可以了解一下八数码八境界…
