Você é um pontinho num avião cartesiano. Pensando na sua existência, você decide andar pelo seu avião e tocar as coisas. Você percebe que cada par de coordenadas que você visita possui um interruptor de luz. Para se divertir, você decide alternar cada opção que encontrar.

O Desafio : Criar um programa que terá uma entrada de comprimento aleatório, usando apenas os personagens v, ^, <, e >. Esses caracteres correspondem a movimentos.

• < move você uma unidade para a esquerda
• ^ move você uma unidade para cima
• > move você uma unidade para a direita
• v move você uma unidade para baixo

Usando esta entrada gerada aleatoriamente, calcule quantos interruptores serão deixados na ONposição, supondo que você comece em (0,0), todas as luzes começam no OFFestado e você não acende nenhuma luz até fazer o seu primeiro movimento. (Ou seja, se você começar em (0,0) e subir 1 unidade para (0,1), agora haverá 1 luz acesa). Se você encontrar um interruptor que está na ONposição, ele será girado OFF.

for i in range(length):
    walk += random.choice(chars)

Jj11\^Ys8#uos

Experimente online! Casos de teste: 1 , 2 .

Explicação

O código rastreia o caminho usando etapas da unidade no plano complexo. Depois, conta quantas vezes cada posição foi visitada e gera quantas posições foram visitadas um número ímpar de vezes.

J         % Push the imaginary unit, 1j
j         % Input string
11\       % Modulo 11. This gives 7 6 5 8 for > ^ < v
^         % 1j raised to those numbers, element-wise. This gives -1j for >, -1 for ^,
          % 1j for < and 1 for v. So it gives the displacements in a "transposed"
          % complex plane
Ys        % Cumulative sum. This transforms displacements into positions
8#u       % Count of occurrences of each unique position
o         % 1 if odd, 0 if even
s         % Sum. Implicitly display

Acho que há mais para otimizar aqui, mas esse é o menor valor que recebi no momento.

Mais fácil de ler:

$a=@();switch -w($args|% t*y){
    '^'{$y++}
    '>'{$x++}

    '<'{$x--}
    *{if("$x,$y"-in$a){$a=$a|?{$_-ne"$x,$y"}}else{$a+="$x,$y"}}
};$a.length

Explicação: A entrada é alterada para uma matriz de caracteres e cada peça é correspondida a um dos 4 primeiros casos de chave para aumentar a coordenada x ou y. Tudo coincide com o quinto caso em que decidimos se uma luz é ligada ou desligada. O comprimento no final determina o número total de interruptores ativados.

Nota: A vírgula nas coordenadas é necessária para que não ocorram colisões como (10,10) e (101,0)

using System.Linq;int f(string s,int x=0,int y=0)=>s.GroupBy(c=>(x+=c%6%3-1)+s+(y-=c/3%6-2)).Sum(g=>g.Count()%2);

Explicação

//Have X and Y as default params allows us to use a expression bodied member
//and then remove the return statement
int f(string s, int x = 0, int y = 0) =>

    //treat the string as a char array
    s.GroupBy(c =>

            //Using the unerlying int of the char this math reduces down to either x - 1, x + 1, x + 0, y - 1 or y + 1, or y + 0
            //Concat the resulting values with the original string to ensure uniqueness ie x=1 and y=11 vs x=11 and y=1 for the grouping
            (x += c % 6 % 3 - 1) + s + (y -= c / 3 % 6 - 2))

Explicação:

(let ((p 0)(c 0)(h (make-hash-table)))
  (progn
    (loop for s across i
      do(incf (gethash (incf p (nth (position s "^>v<")'(1e3 1 -1e3 -1))) h 0)))
    (maphash #'(lambda (k v) (incf c (mod v 2))) h)
    (write c)))

• p é uma chave de mapa de hashtable, gerada como um índice do caractere na cadeia "^> v <", remapeada para os valores 1000, -1000, 1 -1 representando x, y. (o eixo x é + -1, o eixo y é + -1000)
• o valor de hash nesse índice é incrementado em 1 (alternar contador)
• a tabela de hash é em loop, e a função map incrementa a contagem final como módulo 2 do valor em uma determinada chave

Nota: i (entrada) é definido como teste:
