Description
The Joseph's problem is notoriously known. for those who are not familiar with the original problem: From among N people, numbered 1, 2 ,..., n, standing in circle every MTH is going to be executed and only the life of the last remaining person will be saved. joseph was smart enough to choose the position of the last remaining person, thus saving his life to give us the message about the incident. for example when n = 6 and M = 5 then the people will be executed in the order 5, 4, 6, 2, 3 and 1 will be saved.
Suppose that there are K good guys and K bad guys. in the circle the first K are good guys and the last K bad guys. you have to determine such minimal m that all the bad guys will be executed before the first good guy.
Input
The input file consists of separate lines containing K. The last line in the input file contains 0. You can suppose that 0 <k <14.
Output
The output file will consist of separate lines containing M corresponding to K in the input file.
Sample Input
340
Sample output
530

Question:
A total of K bad guys k good guys sit in a circle (the total number is 2 * K), the Front K is good guys (Number 1 ~ K), followed by K bad guys (number k + 1 ~ 2 K ),
The current report number is M. The report number starts from 1, and the person reporting to M will automatically die.
Why can m make K bad guys die before a good person dies?
Note: after the current round of M's personal death, the person numbered 1 in the next round is the person numbered m + 1 in the previous round,
If the previous round happens to be the last person who died, the next round will return to the start person and report "1"
K is relatively small, and the table is directly violent!
The Code is as follows:
# Include <cstdio> int main () {int P [17], ANS [17] = {0}; int M, K; For (k = 1; k <= 14; k ++) {int n = 2 * k; // total number of M = 1; for (INT I = 1; I <= K; I ++) {// Since the number is from 1 ans [I] = (ANS [I-1] + m-1) % (n-I + 1 ); if (ANS [I] <k) // it indicates that a good person is killed and does not match the meaning {I = 0; m ++; // enumeration} p [k] = m; // printf ("% d \ n", P [k]);} // return 0; int KK; while (scanf ("% d", & KK) & KK) {printf ("% d \ n", P [Kk]);} return 0 ;}
