Problem Description

XY is playing a game:there are N pillar in a row,which numbered from 1 to n.Each pillar has a jewel.Now XY is standing on the S-th pillar and the exit is in the T-th pillar.XY can leave from the exit only after they get all the jewels.Each time XY can move to adjacent pillar,or he can jump to boundary ( the first pillar or the N-th pillar) by using his superpower.However,he needs to follow a rule:if he left the pillar,he no can not get here anymore.In order to save his power,XY wants to use the minimum number of superpower to pass the game.

Input

There are multiple test cases, no more than 1000 cases.

For each case,the line contains three integers:N,S and T.

(1≤N≤10000,1≤S,T≤N)

Output

The output of each case will be a single integer on a line: the minimum number of using superpower or output -1 if he can't leave.

Sample Input

      4 1 4 4 1 3 

Sample Output

0 1

题目大意：

问题描述

XY在玩一个游戏：有N根柱子排成一排，编号为1到N,每个柱子上面有一块宝石，现在XY站在第S根柱子上，出口在第T跟柱子上，XY需要拿到所有宝石后从出口离开。每次XY可以走到相邻的柱子上，也可以使用超能力跳到第一根柱子或者第N根柱子上，如果离开了柱子之后再也不能到达这里。为了节省能量，XY想用最少次数超能力通关。

输入描述

输入有多组数据，不超过1000组.每组数据输入一行包含3个整数，N,S和T.(1\leq N\leq10000,1\leq S,T\leq N )(1≤N≤10000,1≤S,T≤N)

输出描述

对于每组数据输出一行，表示使用超能力的最少次数，如果不可能离开，输出-1.

官方题解：

无解的情况只有起点和终点位置一样且N不为1。终点和起点都在边界上答案为0，如果起点在边界上或者起点终点相邻答案为1，其他答案为2.

个人想法:

分别讨论 s 与 t 的关系，

1)当 s == t 的时候，只有当 n == 1的时候输出0，其余输出-1;

2)当 s<t 的时候，再分别讨论 s == 1的时候 t的情况，相邻输出 1。

3)当 s>t 的时候，再分别讨论 s == n的时候 t的情况，相邻输出 1。
