A Solution to rubyquiz 60 (http://rubyquiz.com/quiz60.html)
|
|
|
|
You have a starting point and a target. You have a set of three operations:
|
|
double
|
|
halve (Odd numbers cannot be halved)
|
|
add_two
|
|
Problem: Move from the starting point to the target, minimizing the number of operations.
|
|
|
|
This solution finds the shortest path using A* search with cost of each operation
|
|
as one and the heuristic as the absolute of log of the ratio of the target
|
|
and start numbers.
|
|
