## Description
|
||
<section id='description'>
|
||
The following equation represents the continuous topography of a mountainous region, giving the elevation h at any point (x,y):
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
A mosquito intends to fly from A(200,200) to B(1400,1400), without leaving the area given by 0 ≤ x, y ≤ 1600.
|
||
|
||
Because of the intervening mountains, it first rises straight up to a point A', having elevation f. Then, while remaining at the same elevation f, it flies around any obstacles until it arrives at a point B' directly above B.
|
||
|
||
First, determine fmin which is the minimum constant elevation allowing such a trip from A to B, while remaining in the specified area.
|
||
Then, find the length of the shortest path between A' and B', while flying at that constant elevation fmin.
|
||
|
||
Give that length as your answer, rounded to three decimal places.
|
||
|
||
Note: For convenience, the elevation function shown above is repeated below, in a form suitable for most programming languages:
|
||
h=( 5000-0.005*(x*x+y*y+x*y)+12.5*(x+y) ) * exp( -abs(0.000001*(x*x+y*y)-0.0015*(x+y)+0.7) )
