WA Problem 172 - Calculator Language

Post by suman »

Tryig to solve but WA.

Code: Select all

Input
S = ((M+N)+(9*2))+(2+3)*(A+2)*(D=3)
A = B = 4
C = (D = 2)*_2
C = D = 2 * _2
F = C - D
E = D * _10
Z = 10 / 3
Y = 15 - 8 - 3
U = (((M+N)+(9*2))+(2+3)*(A+2)*(D=3))*(S = ((M+N)+(9*2))+(2+3)*(A+2)*(D=3))
#
and

Code: Select all

Output
D = 3, S = 48
A = 4, B = 4
C = -4, D = 2
D = -4
No Change
E = 40
Z = 3
Y = 10
D = 3, S = 108, U = 11664

Any hint? Please help.

172. Recursive descent parser.

Post by ithamar »

I like to know about some websites that explain the way this kind of problems are solved. I already know that this is done with a Recursive descent parser but i dont understand how to do it.

Guys, You know about a good website.

I really apreciate your help. I need to learn how to solve this kind of problem and for that i need some place where the explanation about the problem its clear. Some examples wouldn't be bad. :wink:

Thanxs in advance

What about order of execution of arguments of binary operations in this problem?

Should A have value 1 or 2 in the result of executing "B=(A=1)+(A=2)" ?
And what should be the value of C after executing C=A+(A=1), where A had value 0 before?

it is written as right associative and support high priority to paranteses .
"B=(A=1)+(A=2)" ? A= 1 , B = 3
C=A+(A=1) A=1 , C = 2

these are my opinion.I have not solve this problem yet.Just try to build solving in mind. :P

Could anyone tell me what's the correct answer for this input ?

Code: Select all

A=100/_2
B=(_1+A*2)/2
I think, that answer should be:

Code: Select all

A = -50
B = 49
but I found other answer:

Code: Select all

A = -50
B = -50
Which one is correct ? Problem statement suggest, that first one is correct.

Best regards

172 help!!!!!!

Post by mido »

This problem is killing me..I even found official inputs and outputs for this problem, with my solution getting(as far as I can tell from the 15000 line output file) correct answers...here's my code:

[cpp]
#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
#include <stack>

int val[30],final[30];

using namespace std;

bool ischar(char x)
{
return (x>='A' && x<='Z');
}

struct node
{
char ch;
int val;
};

node set(char ch,int val)
{
node temp = {ch,val};
return temp;
}

void assign(int& x,char op,int&y)
{
if (op=='*') x*=y;
else if (op=='+') x +=y;
else if (op=='/') x = y/x;
else if (op=='-') x = y-x;
else x=-x;
}

bool isop(char x)
{
return (x=='*' || x=='+' || x=='-' || x=='/' || x=='_');
}

void output(bool change[])
{
int i;
bool totchange=false;

{
if (val!=final)
{

val=final;
}
}

else
{

for (i=0;i<30;i++)
{
if (change){
if (!first)
{
cout<<", ";
}
else first=false;
cout<<char(i+'A')<<" = "<<val;
}
}
}
cout<<endl;
}

void eval(int& sum,stack<node>& arr)
{
sum= arr.top().val;
arr.pop();
while (!arr.empty() && arr.top().ch!='(')
{
if (arr.top().ch=='=')

arr.pop();
assign(sum,op,arr.top().val);

arr.pop();
}

void main()
{
char ch,str[500],a;
int i;
bool first=true;
for (ch='A';ch<='Z';ch++) val[ch-'A'] = 0;
cin>>ws;

eval(sum,arr);
arr.push(set(0,sum));

else if (ischar(a))

arr.push(set(a,val[a-'A']));
}

{
arr.push(set(a,-1));

Solved the problem...for those who want to know, the negative sign is not an operator..thus, A= _5 + 10 would give A = 5, not A = -15.

Dominik, the correct output is the second one: -50, -50 (which is what the standard division operator in C/C++/Java will give you).

mag, the operands need to be evaluated right-to-left so in your

Code: Select all

B=(A=1)+(A=2)
the right answer is

Code: Select all

A = 1, B = 3
There are cases like this in the input. Thanks for pointing out this issue. I wouldn't have thought of it.

Finally I solved this problem - -50 and -50 is corrrect answer - I found my mistake.

Problem 172 Why WA?

Post by chunyi81 »

My program passes all the inputs in this forum and the sample input but judge gives WA. I found a tricky input which I would like to clarify the correct output to.

Input:
A = 2
B = (A + 3) - (A = 5)
#

Should the output be:

A = 2
A = 5

OR

A = 2
A = 5, B = 3

My program gave the first output, but problem description suggests the second output.

A = 2
A = 5
is the right answer. Bracket expressions are evaluated from left to right.

Thanks for the reply, so for the other inputs in this thread:

Input1:
B = (A = 1) + (A = 2)
#

Input2
C = A + (A = 1)
#

would give:

Output1:
A = 2, B = 3 instead of the output given in this thread: A = 1, B = 3?

Output2
A = 1, C = 2 (Same as the output given above in this thread)

I am getting a bit confused here.

That's right. The right answer is A = 2, B = 3. The operators are right associative, so 1 - 2 - 3 = 1 - (2 - 3), but bracket expressions are evaluated from left to right, as one would expect.
