The problem statement said that a horse can move atmost 1 movement so you shouldn't mark the squares that horse can reach with 'Z' if you do it then horse can move more than 1 movement so you must mark reachable squares by horse with another character and be careful about squares that there exist a horse in them!

But the problem statemen said

From statement its clear that a horse will disables 8 position if they r blank(.)

So I have to mark those position where a horse can reach by another symbol other than 'Z'. If I mark those position by 'Z' then it will be treat as a given horse( which is given in the input) and will make not reachable 8 new point for the king but this is not correct.

Does anyone have critical test case ?

In function void Black_invalid(long Row, long Col):

Code: Select all

            //Move 3; 
            ...
            r=i+2;
            c=i+1;      // !!
            ...
Writing the move one by one gets the code size large.
Heres a simple technique to reduce the code.

Code: Select all

// The Knight's move
   for (int e=-1; e<=1; e+=2)
      for (int f=-1; f<=1; f+=2) {
         r=i+e;
         c=j+2*f;
         if( (r>0&&r<=Row) && (c>0&&c<=Col) && Inp[r][c]=='.')
            {
               color[r][c]='b';
            }
         r=i+2*e;
         c=j+f;
         if( (r>0&&r<=Row) && (c>0&&c<=Col) && Inp[r][c]=='.')
            {
               color[r][c]='b';
            }
      }

// The King's move
   for (int i=-1; i<=1; ++i)
      for (int j=-1; j<=1; ++j)
         if (i || j) {
            r=y.x+i;c=y.y+j;
            Data.x=r;Data.y=c;
            if( (r>0&&r<=Row) && (c>0&&c<=Col) && color[r][c]=='w')
               {
                  color[r][c]='b';

                  Dist[r][c]=Dist[y.x][y.y]+1;
                  Enque(Data);
               }
         }

Here's another way to reduce even more code.
For the knight's move:

Code: Select all

int dx[] = {1,1,2,2,-1,-1,-2,-2};
int dy[] = {2,-2,1,-1,2,-2,1,-2};

for(k=0; k<8; k++) {
  r=i+dx[k], c=j+dy[k];
  if(inside(r,c) && Inp[r][c]=='.') color[r][c]='b';
} 

// inside(r,c) is true iff (r,c) is inside the board

Lines from the problemstatement
Security Council of the King disposes information about location of the enemies, which makes the things easier for king. For some unknown reason a forest is M x N chessboard. (M is the number of rows, and N is the number of columns). N, M <= 100 are positive integers.
