M=k2 1+3+5+7+…+(2k-1)=k2

Frank can easily reach the position of k2 by simply moving forward

And when Frank is at position R[x], the next jump distance is 2k+1

Proof 1.1 "If x-(2k+1)>=1 (which means jumping back will not exceed the boundary), Frank can reach R[x+2] (x+2<=M)"

If Frank jumps back (2k+1) and then jumps back again (2k+3), the formula will be (x-(2k+1)+(2k+3))=(x+2)

And x-(2k+1)>=1 && (x+2)<=N, in short, do not exceed the boundary

Proof 1.2 "If Frank is at R[x], and the next jump distance is 2k+1, as long as x-((2k+1)+(y-1)*2)>=1

Frank can go from R[x] to R[x+2y] (0<=y and x+2y<=N)"

Assume x-((2k+1)+(y-1)*2)>=1 (0<=y && x+2y<=N)

When y=0, x=x+2y, naturally we are on x

When y=1, x - (2k+1) = x-((2k+1)+(y-1)*2) >= 1, we can know from (proof 1.1) that we can go from x to x+2

When y>1, use induction, assume we can travel from x to x+2(y-1)=x+2y-2

And the assumption is x-((2k+1)+(y-1)*2)>=1, if currently at x and the next step is 2k+1, it is just like currently at x+2(y-1)

And the next step is 2*(k+(y-1))+1, because we need two jumps to make x to x+2. In order to make the induction effective,

we need some restrictions, the current point - the distance of the next step >=1, in this case, it is like

(x+2(y-1)) - (2*(k+2(y-1))+1) >=1

After some processing and conversion, it will become x - (2_k_ + 1 + 2(y - 1)) > = 1, the same as our initial assumption, so this induction is valid

After the proof, it is time to implement this problem. We need some methods to reach R[M]

These stones are arranged like this R[1], R[2], ... ,R[M],...

If M is odd, we let k be odd, but because the sequence of k becomes (1,9,25,49,81,...), which is strictly increasing

So we can find a suitable (k + 2)2 > M (we can definitely find it), and then M>=k2

The same method is used when M is even.

Now we find the range of k

R[1], R[2], ..., R[k2], ..., R[M],...., R[(k + 2)2],....

Although M is unlikely to be equal to k2, but if it is

Just use M=k2 1+3+5+7+…+(2k-1)=k2, we can solve it

Because M - k2 must be even, and the previous assumption is k2 < = M, we can let M=k2+2r, which is M=x+2y

So we can reach R[k2], the next step is 2k+1, and then k2 - ((2k + 1) + 2(y - 1)) > = 1, we can reach R[M]

We can easily reach k2 because 1+3+5+7+…+(2k-1)=k2, and we can easily reach R[M], but with conditions

k2 - ((2k + 1) + 2(y - 1)) > = 1 y=(M-k2)/2

After rearranging, it becomes

2k2 - 2k + 1 - M > = 1

And (k + 2)2 > M, if we strengthen the restriction, 2k2 - 2k + 1 - (k + 2)2 > = 1 will definitely make 2k2 - 2k + 1 - M > = 1

And 2k2 - 2k + 1 - (k + 2)2 > = 1 will become k_2 - 6_k - 4 > = 0 after simplification

Solving the quadratic inequality k >= 6.7 > (6+sqrt(36+16))/2

And k2 < = M <= N, so N>=49 will always have a solution

If not, just implement it directly
