Checkers - the shortest path
Checkers is a board game, in which the pieces
can move only in diagonals. Refer to the image
for orientation and possible moves.
Question:
Write a program that finds the fastest move
from a given (xf, yf) coordinate
to the destination. Note:
Assume that your pieces cannot jump over the given
obstacles.
Input specification
Firstly, you will be first given 2 integers
- The size of the board (n) where the board is
an nxn matrix and 1 ≤ n ≤ 250
- The number of cells (m) occupied by other pieces
where 0 ≤ m ≤ 5000
Then in the following line you will be given four
integers initial (xi, yi) starting
position and the destination (xf, yf).
Then, in the
following m lines you will be given (x,y) coordinates
of m occupied cells.
Output specification
Show the minimum number of moves that the pieces can
reach to the destination. Show -1, if it
cannot reach to the destination.
