[USACO11NOV] Cow Lineup S
题目描述
Farmer John has hired a professional photographer to take a picture of some of his cows. Since FJ's cows represent a variety of different breeds, he would like the photo to contain at least one cow from each distinct breed present in his herd.
FJ's N cows are all standing at various positions along a line, each described by an integer position (i.e., its x coordinate) as well as an integer breed ID. FJ plans to take a photograph of a contiguous range of cows along the line. The cost of this photograph is equal its size -- that is, the difference between the maximum and minimum x coordinates of the cows in the range of the photograph.
Please help FJ by computing the minimum cost of a photograph in which there is at least one cow of each distinct breed appearing in FJ's herd.
输入格式
* Line 1: The number of cows, N (1 <= N <= 50,000).
* Lines 2..1+N: Each line contains two space-separated positive integers specifying the x coordinate and breed ID of a single cow. Both numbers are at most 1 billion.
输出格式
* Line 1: The smallest cost of a photograph containing each distinct breed ID.

问题描述
农民约翰雇一个专业摄影师给他的部分牛拍照。由于约翰的牛有好多品种,他喜欢他的照片包含每
个品种的至少一头牛。
约翰的牛都站在一条沿线的不同地方, 每一头牛由一个整数位置 以及整数品种编号 表示。
约翰想拍一张照片,这照片由沿线的奶牛的连续范围组成。照片的成本与规模相当,这就意味着,在一
系列照片中的最大和最小 坐标的差距决定了照片的成本。
请帮助约翰计算最小的照片成本,这些照片中有每个不同的品种的至少一头牛,没有两头牛愿意站
在同一个地点的。
输入格式
第 行:牛的数量 ;
第 行:每行包含 2 个以空格分隔的正整数 和 ;意义如题目描述;
