NWERC11B - Bird tree

Bird tree

The Bird tree1 is an infinite binary tree, whose first 5 levels look as follows:

                                   1                                    ∕1                     1∕2                                  2∕1          2∕3                1∕3                3∕1                3∕2    3        3         1        2        5         4        4        5    ∕5       ∕4       ∕4       ∕5        ∕2       ∕1       ∕3        ∕3 5   4    4    5   2    1    3   3    8    7   5    7   7    5    7   8 ∕8   ∕7   ∕5  ∕7   ∕7   ∕5  ∕7   ∕8  ∕3   ∕3   ∕1  ∕2   ∕5   ∕4  ∕4   ∕5

It can be defined as follows:

bird =             1∕1          1∕ (bird + 1)  (1∕bird) + 1

This is a co-recursive definition in which both occurrences of bird refer to the full (infinite) tree. The expression bird + 1 means that 1 is added to every fraction in the tree, and 1∕bird means that every fraction in the tree is inverted (so ab becomes ba).

Surprisingly, the tree contains every positive rational number exactly once, so every reduced fraction is at a unique place in the tree. Hence, we can also describe a rational number by giving directions (L for left subtree, R for right subtree) in the Bird tree. For example, 25 is represented by LRR. Given a reduced fraction, return a string consisting of L’s and R’s: the directions to locate this fraction from the top of the tree.

 

Input

On the first line a positive integer: the number of test cases, at most 100. After that per test case:

  • one line with two integers a and b (1 ≤ a,b ≤ 109), separated by a ’/’. These represent the numerator and denominator of a reduced fraction. The integers a and b are not both equal to 1, and they satisfy gcd(a,b) = 1.

For every test case the length of the string with directions will be at most 10 000.

 

Output

Per test case:

  • one line with the string representation of the location of this fraction in the Bird tree.

Is there any special case needed to check? I got correct results for all numbers in the given diagram, but wrong answer when I submitted it.

the figure doesn't seem to follow the recursive defn. e.g.: 1/((1/3)+1) is 3/4.
follow the figure or the recursive defn?

Nice one, Jeroen! Thanks for the visual.

yeah...took a lot of time to understand

This one took a lot of time.

Agree with bond, understanding it was the most difficult thing.
