Hi,

I've tried with yours inputs and everything looks good for me !

I found exactly the same output.
Thinking that the problem could be the back space in the last line, i've changed a little my program.

But the judge says always 'Wrong Answer'.

Here is my code :

Code: Select all

#ifndef ONLINE_JUDGE 
#include <fstream.h>
#endif
#include <iostream.h>	

void SternBrocot(int x1,int y1)
{
	int a=0,b=1,c=1,d=0;
	int x=1,y=1;

	if (x1==0)
	{
		cout << "L";
		return ;
	}
		
	while ((x != x1) && (y != y1))
	{
		if (x1*y<y1*x) 
		{ 
			cout <<"L";
			c=x;
			d=y;
			x+=a;
			y+=b;
		}
		else
		{
			cout <<"R";
			a=x;
			b=y;
			x+=c;
			y+=d;
		}
	}
}

int main()
{
	int x1,y1;
	int NewLine=0;

	#ifndef ONLINE_JUDGE 
		ifstream cin("file.in");
	#endif 

	while (cin >> x1 >> y1)
	{
		if (!((x1 ==1) && (y1==1)))	
		{	
			if (NewLine==1)
				cout << endl;
			
			SternBrocot (x1,y1);
			NewLine=1;
		}
	} 

	return 0;
}

Where does my error come from ?

Code: Select all

#include <iostream>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <cmath>
#define verysmall pow(10,-9)
using namespace std;
double N1,N2;
string s="";
int recur(double m,double n,double m1,double n1)
{
    double numerator=m+m1;
    double denumerator=n+n1;
    //cout<<"n="<<numerator<<" d="<<denumerator<<endl;
    if((numerator/denumerator)-(N1/N2)>verysmall)
    {
        s+="L";
        //cout<<s<<endl;
        recur(m,n,numerator,denumerator);
    }
    else if((numerator/denumerator)-(N1/N2)<0)
    {
        s+="R";
        recur(numerator,denumerator,m1,n1);
    }
    else return 0;
}

int  main()
{
    freopen("uva10077.txt","r",stdin);
    while(scanf("%d %d",&N1,&N2)==2)
    {
        s="";
        if(N1==1 && N2==1)break;
        recur(0,1,1,0);
        cout<<s<<endl;
