今天空着没事干进去google2005程序大赛的网站看了看，拿了条250分的题。我是连题目也看不懂，大家看看，最好有人可以把他翻译成中文！！

With all the different cell phone plans being offered these days, it is often difficult to pick the one that provides the best values for a particular usage pattern. In this problem, we will consider cell phone plans that provide a fixed number of minutes each month for a certain fee. If you go over the fixed number of minutes, you must pay an additional fee per minute. Additionally, some plans offer free off hour (night and weekend) calls, while other plans treat off hour calls the same as peak hour calls. If a plan offers free off hour calling, then the calls made during off hours don't use up the fixed number of minutes you get each month. You will be given a String[], plans, each element of which represents a cell phone plan. Each plan will be formatted as "<PRICE> <MINUTES> <COST PER MINUTE> <OFF>" (quotes and angle brackets for clarity only). <PRICE> will be an integer representing the number of cents per month that one must pay for the plan. <MINUTES> will represent the number of free minutes the plan provides, per month. <COST PER MINUTE> will represent the price in cents of each additional minute in a month, beyond the first <MINUTES>. <OFF> will be either 'T' or 'F', representing whether off hour calls are free ('T') or not ('F'). Additionally, you will be given two int[]s. peakMinutes will represent the number of minutes spent talking during peak hours, while offMinutes will represent the number of minutes spent talking during off hours. Corresponding elements of peakMinutes and offMinutes will represent a single month of use. Your task is to return the index (starting from 0) of the cheapest plan over all the months given as input. If there is a tie, return the lowest index among tied plans.

Examples

{"2999 1000 29 T",
"5999 3000 49 F",
"999 0 19 F"}
{1543,463,754,405,0,30}
{100,2053,1003,534,2595,3056}
Returns: 0
Plan 0 provides 1000 free minutes, and free off hour calling. For the 6 months given, we must pay the base rate (2999) each month for a total of 17994. Additionally, we used an extra 543 minutes during the first month, for which we must pay 543*29 = 15747. 15747 + 17994 = 33741. Plan 1 would end up costing 40208, while plan 2 would end up costing 244178.
1)


{"10000 0 0 T","10000 0 0 F"}
{20000,25000}
{25000,20000}
Returns: 0
These plans always cost the same amount since it doesn't matter whether you get free off hour calling when the calls are already free. Since there is a tie, return the lower index.
2)


{"100000 0 1000 F","100000 0 10 F"}
{25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,

25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,

25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,25000,
