Do you think test case number one is the sample?

done!

I solve without loop but is return WA#4

There is my algorithm :
if in list has 1 , 2 , 3 together always "Yes"
otherwise "No" am I right or any case is there ?

Or this, aldo wa 15
What´s the problem??

#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
const int infInt = 1e9;

vector<int>adj[100010];
pair<int,int> edges[100010];
int final;
map< pair<int,int> ,int> Map;
bool mark[100010];

bool vis[100010];
int dp[100010];

int f(int u){
  if(edges[u].second==final)return 0;
  if(vis[u])return dp[u];
  vis[u]=true;
  int x=edges[u].first;
  int y=edges[u].second;
  int ans=infInt;
  for(auto z:adj[y]){
    int v=Map[make_pair(y,z)];
    if(v>u)
      ans=min(ans,1+f(v));
  }
  return dp[u]=ans;
}

    if(i==0)

Yay \o/

Lee algorithm. Runs in O(N * M).

If you don't know it, here is a short description: you start from starting position (sl, sc) and now you expand this node; in a queue you put all its neighbours. You do this only if you optimize by going to that neighbour, i.e. the current cost is shorter than the previous one. let a[i][j] be a matrix with two fields: boots and length. a[i][j] means: minimum number of boots and minimum length to reach (i, j) from start position.
You expand from (x, y) to a neighbour (c, d) when:
a[x][y].boots + 1 (if you change boots, 0 else) < a[c][d].boots or a[x][y].boots + 1 = a[c][d].boots and a[x][y].length + 1 < a[c][d].length. Obvious, you take the valid neighbours (not 0s or outside ones)
hope it's clear...

It could be proved that in Dijkstra's algorithm the choice K = E /V is assimptotically optimal. So, applying to our problem, E / V equals to 8.

yes, coordinates may be negative and this problem is very very easy :)

You are printing a, print(a).  A is a LIST.
