I think this problem is not very hard and it's interesting.

Description:

You are given $$$2$$$ arrays $$$a$$$ and $$$b$$$ and the length of them is $$$n$$$.

  • $$$1$$$, $$$3$$$, $$$5$$$, ......, $$$2 * n - 1$$$ is in $$$a$$$.

  • $$$2$$$, $$$4$$$, $$$6$$$, ......, $$$2 * n$$$ is in $$$b$$$.

$$$\mathrm{Algorithm}\ 1:$$$

we use the array $$$mp_i$$$ is $$$i$$$ the distance to the $$$a_1$$$ or $$$b_1$$$.

the code is:

for (int i = 1;i <= n; ++ i) cin >> a[i], mp[a[i]] = i - 1;
for (int j = 1;j <= n; ++ j) cin >> b[i], mp[b[i]] = i - 1;

We can enumerate the $$$i$$$ and the $$$j$$$, and the answer is $$$mp_{a_i}\ +\ mp_{b_j}$$$.

time: $$$O(tn^2)$$$.

$$$\mathrm{Algorithm}\ 2:$$$

we can use $$$mini_i\ =\ \mathrm{min}_{i=\frac{i}{2}}^{n}mp_{2i}$$$.

and the time is $$$O(tn)$$$.
