9605: ABC246 —— E - Bishop 2
Description
The board is described by $N$ strings $S_i$.
The $j$-th character of the string $S_i$, $S_{i,j}$, means the following.
- If $S_{i,j}=$ `.`, the square $(i, j)$ is empty.
- If $S_{i,j}=$ `#`, the square $(i, j)$ is occupied by a white pawn, which cannot be moved or removed.
We have put a white bishop on the square $(A_x, A_y)$.
Find the minimum number of moves needed to move this bishop from $(A_x, A_y)$ to $(B_x, B_y)$ according to the rules of chess (see Notes).
If it cannot be moved to $(B_x, B_y)$, report `-1` instead.
Notes
A white bishop on the square $(i, j)$ can go to the following positions in one move.
- For each positive integer $d$, it can go to $(i+d,j+d)$ if all of the conditions are satisfied.
- The square $(i+d,j+d)$ exists in the board.
- For every positive integer $l \le d$, $(i+l,j+l)$ is not occupied by a white pawn.
- For each positive integer $d$, it can go to $(i+d,j-d)$ if all of the conditions are satisfied.
- The square $(i+d,j-d)$ exists in the board.
- For every positive integer $l \le d$, $(i+l,j-l)$ is not occupied by a white pawn.
- For each positive integer $d$, it can go to $(i-d,j+d)$ if all of the conditions are satisfied.
- The square $(i-d,j+d)$ exists in the board.
- For every positive integer $l \le d$, $(i-l,j+l)$ is not occupied by a white pawn.
- For each positive integer $d$, it can go to $(i-d,j-d)$ if all of the conditions are satisfied.
- The square $(i-d,j-d)$ exists in the board.
- For every positive integer $l \le d$, $(i-l,j-l)$ is not occupied by a white pawn.
