Ski Resort

Problem code: SKIRES

  • All Submissions

All submissions for this problem are available.

Ski season is in full swing and the Chef decided it's time to expand his business. He invested into a restaurant at the bottom of a ski slope. Things were going great until one of his employees got injured while skiing home from work. Chef would like to make sure this doesn't happen again. He wants to alter the surrounding landscape to prevent his employees from skiing to their homes in the nearby town. Flattening a large area is obviously out of the question and that's where you come in.

Chef was kind enough to model the surronding area as a grid with H rows and W columns. Area outside this grid is not suitable for skiing. You are given the elevation of each cell in this grid and the location of his restaurant (Rr,Cr) and the town (Rt,Ct). As long as there exists a non-increasing path from the restaurant to the town, the employees will not hesitate to ski home. A sequence of cells is called a path if every consecutive pair of cells shares a common edge. You are allowed to increase the elevation of any cell (except for the restaurant and town cell) by an integer amount. Find the minimum total number of units of elevation increase which allows Chef to prevent his employees from skiing home.

Input

The first line contains a single integer T, the number of test cases. The first line of each testcase contains numbers H and W. Rr, Cr, Rt, Ct are given in the second line. Following lines describe the layout of the ski resort. The j-th number in the i-th line represents elevation Ei,j of cell (i,j). Top left corner of the grid has coordinates (1,1). All numbers in the input are integer.

Output

For each test case, output minimum total elevation so that chef can achieve his goal or -1 if that is not possible.

Constraints

  • T <= 10
  • 1 <= H,W <= 50
  • 0 <= Ei,j <= 200 000

Please Explain it ...??

Figuring out the provided

tomaz_adm @ 3 Mar 2011 01:52 AM

Figuring out the provided example is part of the problem.

0 <= final elevation <= 200

ytau @ 6 Mar 2011 12:49 PM

0 <= final elevation <= 200 000 , yes or no?

@Tsun: Why would you assume

tomaz_adm @ 6 Mar 2011 05:54 PM

@Tsun: Why would you assume that? Problem statement limits only initial elevations, the rest is up to you.

Can we increase the elevation

pulkit @ 8 Mar 2011 08:01 AM

Can we increase the elevation of only 1 cell or any number of cells?

Any number of cells, check

tomaz_adm @ 8 Mar 2011 12:48 PM

Any number of cells, check the first example.

CodeChef - A Platform for Aspiring Programmers

CodeChef was created as a platform to help programmers make it big in the world of algorithms, computer programming and programming contests. At CodeChef we work hard to revive the geek in you by hosting a programming contest at the start of the month and another smaller programming challenge in the middle of the month. We also aim to have training sessions and discussions related to algorithms, binary search, technicalities like array size and the likes. Apart from providing a platform for programming competitions, CodeChef also has various algorithm tutorials and forum discussions to help those who are new to the world of computer programming.

Practice Section - A Place to hone your 'Computer Programming Skills'

Try your hand at one of our many practice problems and submit your solution in a language of your choice. Our programming contest judge accepts solutions in over 35+ programming languages. Preparing for coding contests were never this much fun! Receive points, and move up through the CodeChef ranks. Use our practice section to better prepare yourself for the multiple programming challenges that take place through-out the month on CodeChef.

Compete - Monthly Programming Contests and Cook-offs

Here is where you can show off your computer programming skills. Take part in our 10 day long monthly coding contest and the shorter format Cook-off coding contest. Put yourself up for recognition and win great prizes. Our programming contests have prizes worth up to Rs.20,000 and $700lots more CodeChef goodies up for grabs.

Discuss

Are you new to computer programming? Do you need help with algorithms? Then be a part of CodeChef's Forums and interact with all our programmers - they love helping out other programmers and sharing their ideas. Have discussions around binary search, array size, branch-and-bound, Dijkstra's algorithm, Encryption algorithm and more by visiting the CodeChef Forums and Wiki section.

CodeChef Community

As part of our Educational initiative, we give institutes the opportunity to associate with CodeChef in the form of Campus Chapters. Hosting online programming competitions is not the only feature on CodeChef. You can also host a coding contest for your institute on CodeChef, organize an algorithm event and be a guest author on our blog.

Go For Gold

The Go for Gold Initiative was launched about a year after CodeChef was incepted, to help prepare Indian students for the ACM ICPC World Finals competition. In the run up to the ACM ICPC competition, the Go for Gold initiative uses CodeChef as a platform to train students for the ACM ICPC competition via multiple warm up contests. As an added incentive the Go for Gold initiative is also offering over Rs.8 lacs to the Indian team that beats the 29th position at the ACM ICPC world finals. Find out more about the Go for Gold and the ACM ICPC competition here.
