Description
A Ducci sequence is a sequence of n-tuples of integers. Given an n-tuple of integers (a1, a2, ... , an), the next n-tuple in the sequence is formed by taking the absolute differences of neighboring integers:
( a1, a2, ... , an) (| a1 - a2|,| a2 - a3|, ... ,| an - a1|)
Ducci sequences either reach a tuple of zeros or fall into a periodic loop. For example, the 4-tuple sequence starting with 8,11,2,7 takes 5 steps to reach the zeros tuple:
(8, 11, 2, 7) (3, 9, 5, 1) (6, 4, 4, 2) (2, 0, 2, 4) (2, 2, 2, 2) (0, 0, 0, 0).
The 5-tuple sequence starting with 4,2,0,2,0 enters a loop after 2 steps:
(4, 2, 0, 2, 0) (2, 2, 2, 2, 4) ( 0, 0, 0, 2, 2) (0, 0, 2, 0, 2) (0, 2, 2, 2, 2) (2, 0, 0, 0, 2) (2, 0, 0, 2, 0) (2, 0, 2, 2, 2) (2, 2, 0, 0, 0) (0, 2, 0, 0, 2) (2, 2, 0, 2, 2) (0, 2, 2, 0, 0) (2, 0, 2, 0, 0) (2, 2, 2, 0, 2) (0, 0, 2, 2, 0) (0, 2, 0, 2, 0) (2, 2, 2, 2, 0) ( 0, 0, 0, 2, 2) ...
Given an n-tuple of integers, write a program to decide if the sequence is reaching to a zeros tuple or a periodic loop.
Your program is to read the input from standard input. The input consists of T test cases. The number of test cases T is given in the first line of the input. Each test case starts with a line containing an integer n(3n15), which represents the size of a tuple in the Ducci sequences. In the following line, n integers are given which represents the n-tuple of integers. The range of integers are from 0 to 1,000. You may assume that the maximum number of steps of a Ducci sequence reaching zeros tuple or making a loop does not exceed 1,000.
Your program is to write to standard output. Print exactly one line for each test case. Print `LOOP' if the Ducci sequence falls into a periodic loop, print `ZERO' if the Ducci sequence reaches to a zeros tuple.
The following shows sample input and output for four test cases.
4 4 8 11 2 7 5 4 2 0 2 0 7 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 6 1 2 3 1 2 3
ZERO LOOP ZERO LOOP
題解:給定數組,依次求前一個減後一個的值的絕對值,如果是最後一個則是最後一個減第一個的值的絕對值,
最多循環1000次,如果出現數組的值全部變為0,則為ZERO,否則為LOOP,所以只求全部為0的情況即可。
