You are in an infinite 2D grid where you can move in any of the 8 directions : | |
(x,y) to (x+1, y), (x - 1, y), (x, y+1), (x, y-1), (x-1, y-1), (x+1,y+1), (x-1,y+1), (x+1,y-1) | |
You are given a sequence of points and the order in which you need to cover the points. | |
Give the minimum number of steps in which you can achieve it. You start from the first point. | |
Example : Input : [(0, 0), (1, 1), (1, 2)] Output : 2 It takes 1 step to move from (0, 0) to (1, 1). | |
It takes one more step to move from (1, 1) to (1, 2). | |
This question is intentionally left slightly vague. | |
