Hello,
I do not understand what was my mistake for the overexcited fan problem.
Is it possible to have the test set input 1 now that the challenge is over ?
My strategy was to move east until I will be on the same vertical axis that
the goal and then wait if the next step of the goal would be on my position
or move north/South to get closer…
Thank you
My code :
T = int(input())
for case in range(1, T + 1):
entree = input().split(" ")
dx = int(entree[0])
dy = int(entree[1])
path = entree[2]
time = 0
for i in range(len(path)):
#first to the east
if dx != 0:
if path[i] == 'S':
dy -= 1
elif path[i] == 'N':
dy += 1
dx -= 1
time += 1
#then to the north or the south
elif dy != 0:
time = time + 1
nextdy = dy
if path[i] == 'S':
nextdy -= 1
dy -= 2
elif path[i] == 'N':
nextdy += 1
if nextdy == 0:
dy = 0
break
elif dx == 0 and dy == 0:
break
if (dx == 0 and dy == 0):
print("Case #%i: %s" % (case, time))
if dx != 0 or dy != 0:
print("Case #%i: %s" % (case, "IMPOSSIBLE"))
