传送门:POJ 3278 Catch That Cow

Problem

Description

Farmer John has been informed of the location of a fugitive cow and wants to catch her immediately. He starts at a point N (0 ≤ N ≤ 100,000) on a number line and the cow is at a point K (0 ≤ K ≤ 100,000) on the same number line. Farmer John has two modes of transportation: walking and teleporting.

* Walking: FJ can move from any point X to the points X - 1 or X + 1 in a single minute
* Teleporting: FJ can move from any point X to the point 2 × X in a single minute.

If the cow, unaware of its pursuit, does not move at all, how long does it take for Farmer John to retrieve it?

Input

Line 1: Two space-separated integers: N and K

Output

Line 1: The least amount of time, in minutes, it takes for Farmer John to catch the fugitive cow.

Sample Input

1
5 17

Sample Output

1
4

Hint

The fastest way for Farmer John to reach the fugitive cow is to move along the following path: 5-10-9-18-17, which takes 4 minutes.

Note

这个地球真太小了,在地铁上看小米的面经写到了一个算法题,心想挺有意思的,回去写写。回家继续写 kuangbin 带你飞 的题目,结果发现第三道刚好是面经中看到的。太小了太小了。简单题目。哈哈哈,看到 Teleporting 的时候第一反应是 TP。
