Knight Moves（广搜BFS）
Description
A friend of you is doing research on the Traveling Knight Problem (TKP) where you are to find the shortest closed tour of knight moves that visits each square of a given set of n squares on a chessboard exactly once. He thinks that the most difficult part of the problem is determining the smallest number of knight moves between two given squares and that, once you have accomplished this, finding the tour would be easy.
Of course you know that it is vice versa. So you offer him to write a program that solves the "difficult" part.
Your job is to write a program that takes two squares a and b as input and then determines the number of knight moves on a shortest route from a to b.

Your job is to write a program that takes two squares a and b as input and then determines the number of knight moves on a shortest route from a to b.
Input
The input file will contain one or more test cases. Each test case consists of one line containing two squares separated by one space. A square is a string consisting of a letter (a-h) representing the column and a digit (1-8) representing the row on the chessboard.
Output
For each test case, print one line saying "To get from xx to yy takes n knight moves.".
Sample Input
e2 e4
a1 b2
b2 c3
a1 h8
a1 h7
h8 a1
b1 c3
f6 f6
Sample Output
To get from e2 to e4 takes 2 knight moves.
To get from a1 to b2 takes 4 knight moves.
To get from b2 to c3 takes 2 knight moves.
To get from a1 to h8 takes 6 knight moves.
To get from a1 to h7 takes 5 knight moves.
To get from h8 to a1 takes 6 knight moves.
To get from b1 to c3 takes 1 knight moves.
To get from f6 to f6 takes 0 knight moves.
题目意思：给出骑士的初始位置和最后的目标位置，问骑士最少需要多少步就能到达目标。
解题思路：我们首先需要明确的是这是一个8*8的矩阵，列用字母a-h表示，行用字母1-8表示，最重要的是明白国际象棋中的骑士也就是马，也是走的‘'日'字。
准确说走的是3*2的格子中的对角线。
中国象棋的棋子是摆在横线与竖线的交点上，而国际象棋却是将棋子摆在格子内，明白这一点也就直到为什么骑士也是走‘’日字的了，有图可知骑士最多能够向八个方位移动，那么我们只需进行一下八向的BFS即可。
