Counterfeit Dollar
Counterfeit Dollar |
Sally Jones has a dozen Voyageur silver dollars. However, only eleven of the coins are true silver dollars; one coin is counterfeit even though its color and size make it indistinguishable from the real silver dollars. The counterfeit coin has a different weight from the other coins but Sally does not know if it is heavier or lighter than the real coins.
Happily, Sally has a friend who loans her a very accurate balance scale. The friend will permit Sally three weighings to find the counterfeit coin. For instance, if Sally weighs two coins against each other and the scales balance then she knows these two coins
are true. Now if Sally weighs one of the true coins against a third coin and the scales do not balance then Sally knows the third coin is counterfeit and she can tell whether it is light or heavy depending on whether the balance on which it is placed goes
up or down, respectively.
By choosing her weighings carefully, Sally is able to ensure that she will find the counterfeit coin with exactly three weighings.
Input
The first line of input is an integer n (n > 0) specifying the number of cases to follow. Each case consists of three lines of input, one for each weighing. Sally has identified each of the coins with the letters A-L. Information on a weighing will be given by two strings of letters and then one of the words ``up‘‘, ``down‘‘, or ``even‘‘. The first string of letters will represent the coins on the left balance; the second string, the coins on the right balance. (Sally will always place the same number of coins on the right balance as on the left balance.) The word in the third position will tell whether the right side of the balance goes up, down, or remains even.Output
For each case, the output will identify the counterfeit coin by its letter and tell whether it is heavy or light. The solution will always be uniquely determined.Sample Input
1 ABCD EFGH even ABCI EFJK up ABIJ EFGH even
Sample Output
K is the counterfeit coin and it is light.
题意:有12枚钱币‘A’-‘L‘,现在有一枚钱币是假的,假的钱币可能重可能轻,现在个天平,可以称3次,每次称的情况都会表示出来,问找到哪枚硬币是假的,并且输出是重还是轻。
思路:枚举钱币和轻重,去判断是否满足条件即可,简单粗暴的直接暴力枚举。
代码:
