解题思路
这道题涉及匹配雄性和雌性老鼠的组合问题,使用动态规划的方法来解决。我们需要计算出满足特定条件的匹配数,主要条件是匹配必须是不同性别,且雌性老鼠只能与比她年轻的雄性老鼠匹配。具体问题细分如下:
- 计算初始状态下的组合数 。
- 给定已有匹配数的情况下,计算添加新的雌性老鼠后的匹配方法数。
- 推导出一般情况下的递推关系式。
Solution
Question 1: What is when ?
For when , since we only have one mouse, we cannot form any pairs if . Therefore,
Question 2: Suppose we have already made matches among the first mice, and . How many remaining ways are there of matching the -th mouse?
If the -th mouse is female (), she can be paired with any of the males among the first mice, as long as each male has not been paired yet. Therefore, the number of ways of matching the -th mouse is:
since is the total number of males among the first mice, and is the number of pairs already formed.
Question 3: Write a formula for in terms of and
To derive the formula for :
- If the -th mouse is male (), he cannot form a new pair immediately. Thus,
- If the -th mouse is female (), she can form a new pair with any of the available males among the first mice. This adds new ways of making matches by pairing her with one of these males.
Combining both cases, we get the formula:
Hence, the formula for can be written as:
