1263. Minimum Moves to Move a Box to Their Target Location
Storekeeper is a game in which the player pushes boxes around in a warehouse trying to get them to target locations.
The game is represented by a grid of size m x n, where each element is a wall, floor, or a box.
Your task is move the box 'B' to the target position 'T' under the following rules:
- Player is represented by character
'S'and can move up, down, left, right in thegridif it is a floor (empy cell). - Floor is represented by character
'.'that means free cell to walk. - Wall is represented by character
'#'that means obstacle (impossible to walk there). - There is only one box
'B'and one target cell'T'in thegrid. - The box can be moved to an adjacent free cell by standing next to the box and then moving in the direction of the box. This is a push.
- The player cannot walk through the box.
Return the minimum number of pushes to move the box to the target. If there is no way to reach the target, return -1.
Example 1:
Input: grid = [["#","#","#","#","#","#"],
["#","T","#","#","#","#"],
["#",".",".","B",".","#"],
["#",".","#","#",".","#"],
["#",".",".",".","S","#"],
["#","#","#","#","#","#"]]
Output: 3
Explanation: We return only the number of times the box is pushed.
Example 2:
Input: grid = [["#","#","#","#","#","#"],
["#","T","#","#","#","#"],
["#",".",".","B",".","#"],
["#","#","#","#",".","#"],
["#",".",".",".","S","#"],
["#","#","#","#","#","#"]]
Output: -1
Example 3:
Input: grid = [["#","#","#","#","#","#"], ["#","T",".",".","#","#"], ["#",".","#","B",".","#"], ["#",".",".",".",".","#"], ["#",".",".",".","S","#"], ["#","#","#","#","#","#"]] Output: 5 Explanation: push the box down, left, left, up and up.
Example 4:
Input: grid = [["#","#","#","#","#","#","#"], ["#","S","#",".","B","T","#"], ["#","#","#","#","#","#","#"]] Output: -1
Constraints:
m == grid.lengthn == grid[i].length1 <= m <= 201 <= n <= 20gridcontains only characters'.','#','S','T', or'B'.- There is only one character
'S','B'and'T'in thegrid.
