a and b are constants hence we can’t change them.

hey brother
sorry to interrupt
if i have to go from 2 to 10
the difference is 8
i can do it in 2+ 7+1 = 10
making it only 2 steps
adding odd 7 and adding odd 1

Hey Brother,
You cannot change a and b.
Either you can do 2+7+7 (if a = 7) or you can do 2+1+1 (if a = 1 )
You can refer this explanation - Click Here
#include
using namespace std;
int main() {
long long t;
cin>>t;
while(t){
long long x,y,pd;
cin>>x>>y;
if(x==y){
std::cout << “1” << std::endl;
}
else if(y>x){
pd=y-x;
if(pd%2==0){
if((pd/2)%2==0){
cout<<“3”;
}
else if((pd/2)%2!=0){
cout<<“2”;
}
}
else
std::cout << “1” << std::endl;
}
else if(y<x){
pd=y-x;
if(pd%2==0){
cout<<“1”;
}
else
std::cout << “2” << std::endl;
}
t--;
}
return 0;
}
What is wrong in this code ?

bro i am geting EOF error, even though i am using the editorial code. how to correct it
why i am getting EOF error with this solution, even i used the same code.
You can visit the problem and go to “all submissions” , then select you language and search.
let me check the solution.Send your solution link.
for _ in range(int(input())):
x,y = input().split()
X = int(x)
Y = int(y)
dif = Y-X
rounds = 0
if dif>0 and dif%2==0:
if dif%4 != 0:
rounds =3
else:
rounds = 2
elif dif>0 and dif%2 != 0:
rounds = 1
elif dif<0 and dif%2 == 0:
rounds = 1
elif dif<0 and dif%2 != 0:
rounds = 2
else:
rounds = 0
print(rounds)
this code of mine works fine but after submitting it says that it is wrong ans.
please tell me any thing wrong with my code
@star_in if diff%4!=0 then rounds will be 2 because then we can find an odd number resulting in that difference else rounds will be 3.
since you can’t change the values of the ‘a’ and ‘b’, lets say, to make dif = 4 you have to take a = 3 and b =2
then a+a-b = 4 it means that we have to add the value of ‘a’ two time in X and value of ‘b’ one time.
So now the rounds will be 3, not 2.
In ps there is a term " in order to clean" so how can even x>y,
that means if x=4 and y=0 , so you are making things dirty to achieve the level of y
