Description
Farmer John has been informed of the location of a fugitive cow and wants to catch her immediately. He starts at a point N (0 <= N <= 100,000) on a number line and the cow is at a point K (0 <= K <= 100,000) on the same number line. Farmer John has two modes of transportation: walking and teleporting. * Walking: FJ can move from any point X to the points X-1 or X+1 in a single minute * Teleporting: FJ can move from any point X to the point 2*X in a single minute. If the cow, unaware of its pursuit, does not move at all, how long does it take for Farmer John to retrieve it?
Input
* Line 1: Two space-separated integers: N and K
Output
* Line 1: The least amount of time, in minutes, it takes for Farmer John to catch the fugitive cow.
Sample Input
Farmer John starts at point 5 and the fugitive cow is at point 17.
Sample Output
OUTPUT DETAILS:
The fastest way for Farmer John to reach the fugitive cow is to
move along the following path: 5-10-9-18-17, which takes 4 minutes.
