UVa 11850 – Alaska

Solution Idea:

The tricky part in this problem statement is this –

” Can Brenda drive her car from Dawson City to Delta Junction and back? ”

So Brenda need to reach her destination and return his start point. So just take input all the points and sort then in acceding order and check that the distance between two consecutive points is less than or equal to 200 or not. If it’s not then the ans will be impossible and if the 2*(distance between the last point and and destination) >200 the ans will be impossible. Otherwise the ans is possible.
