    // Cell (col c, row r) has its centre at the point (c, r); the lake occupies
    // x in [-0.5, m-0.5], y in [-0.5, n-0.5]. The flow digit picks one of five
    // vectors and Peter adds one of the same five, so a resulting velocity has
    // each component in {-2,-1,0,1,2}: along the flow axis he moves at speed 2
    // (next centre in 0.5 min), at speed 1 with no push (1 min), diagonally at
    // speed sqrt(2) to a diagonal neighbour (1 min), or stays put by cancelling
    // the flow. Every Peter-to-centre time is therefore a multiple of 0.5, so a
    // shortest path with edge weights 1 and 2 in half-minutes gives dist[c],
    // the earliest he can sit in each centre (he may then wait there
    // arbitrarily). Because the weights are only 1 and 2 the live frontier
    // spans at most three consecutive distances, so Dial's algorithm with
    // buckets keyed by distance % 3 settles every cell in order without a heap.
    //
    // The boat only drifts, so from any cell it has a single successor: it
    // steps one axis-aligned cell per minute. A deterministic walk with one
    // successor each must, within at most n*m steps, either stop on a
    // still-water cell, step off the board through the shore, or revisit a cell
    // it has already seen. The first repeated cell is where the trajectory
    // folds into a cycle: the prefix before it is walked once, and from there
    // the boat loops forever with period = (current time) - (time the repeated
    // cell was first seen). So a prefix cell is occupied at one fixed time,
    // while a cycle cell is occupied at base + k*period for every k >= 0; the
    // move from the last recorded cell back to the cycle's entry is itself an
    // edge of the loop and is added explicitly. Reaching the shore is always a
    // save, so one candidate answer is the min over cells of dist[c] plus the
    // time to push out of the nearest wall from c (half the usual cell-crossing
    // time, since a wall sits half a cell from the centre).
    //
    // To meet the boat there are three ways, each turned into the earliest
    // valid time and minimised together with the shore candidate. First, Peter
    // can sit in a centre the boat visits: he is fine as long as he arrives no
    // later than the boat, so the candidate is the earliest visit time >=
    // dist[c] (just the single time for a prefix cell, or base + k*period
    // rounded up past dist[c] for a cycle cell, or max(dist[c], stop_time) for
    // a stalled boat).
    //
    // Second, while the boat crosses an edge from A to A' during [t, t+1] Peter
    // can dart in from A' straight back toward A, head-on against it. To stay
    // on the edge his velocity must lie along it, so his speed sp there is 2 if
    // the flow at A' points from A' to A, 1 if A' is still water, and otherwise
    // this case does not apply. Leaving A' at his earliest time dist[A'] and
    // meeting the boat after he has covered sp*(t_m - dist[A']) while the boat
    // has covered (t_m - t) of the unit edge gives sp*(t_m - dist[A']) = 1 -
    // (t_m - t), i.e. t_m = (1 + t + sp*dist[A']) / (sp + 1). This only counts
    // when the contact point really falls inside the edge, which works out to t
    // lying in [dist[A'] - 1, dist[A'] + 1/sp]; for a cycle edge the smallest
    // qualifying t = base + k*period is used (this is the case the 2/3 sample
    // needs).
    //
    // Third, Peter can chase the boat from A in its own direction at speed 2
    // (only when the flow at A matches the boat's heading). Closing the unit
    // gap at relative speed 2 - 1 gives t_m = 2*dist[A] - t, valid when dist[A]
    // lies in [t, t + 0.5] (earlier arrival is just the centre-wait case at A).
    // If no candidate is ever finite Peter cannot be saved and the answer is
    // SOS.

378. Save the Fisher
Time limit per test: 0.25 second(s)
Memory limit: 65536 kilobytes
input: standard
output: standard



Peter has a boat. He loves to use it for fishing on the Berland Lake. But today an accident happen with him. A huge fish ate the hook, and when Peter tried to take the fish out of the lake, he suddenly discovered that the fish was stronger. Unfortunately Peter was unable to stay on the board and he fell down into the water. But he did not want to lose such a catch. So the fish took him somewhere...

The Peter is now somewhere inside the lake and lost his boat and his rod. Luckily, Peter knows each bermeter of this lake (bermeter is the length measurement unit in Berland). You will help Peter to create the plan to save himself.

The lake is a rectangle of N x M bermeters. Let us consider an N x M grid of 1 x 1 squares within this rectangle. Peter can move within the lake according to the following:

When Peter is in the center of some cell, his real velocity is the sum of the vectors of the velocity of the flow and Peter's movement vector. He moves with this velocity until he reaches the center of some other cell, where his new velocity will be calculated independently of the previous velocity. The velocity could not be changed in any place other than the center of some cell.
For each cell you know the flow velocity, it can be one of the following five vectors: 1: (0, -1), 2: (0, 1), 3: (1, 0), 4: (-1, 0), 0: (0, 0). All velocities are in bermeters per minute. Peter's movement vector also is chosen among these five vectors, and he can change it any time when he is in the center of some cell. E. g. if the flow velocity is (0, -1) and the Peter's movement vector is (1, 0) then the resulting velocity will be (1, -1), i. e. Peter will move diagonally. Note that Peter may stay in the center of any cell during any period of time (may be non-integer amount of minutes) by selecting movement vector opposite to the flow speed. If Peter moves with the same vector as the flow, he will reach the center of the next cell in half a minute.
The boat moves according to the same laws as Peter, but the boat's movement speed is always zero.
Peter is saved when he is in the same point as the boat (it is not neccessary to reach the center of any cell) or if he reaches the shore of the lake. The boat can also reach the shore, if it happens, the boat stops there.




Input
The first line of the input contains two integers N and M (1 ≤ N, M≤ 500) separated by one space. Each of the next N lines contains M digits each — the description of the lake. The digit is the number of the flow velocity vector in the corresponding cell, according to the statement. The last two lines contain two integers each, the first corresponds to initial coordinates of Peter, the second is for the boat.

Output
Output the minimal time in minutes required for Peter to save himself, rounded up to two digits after decimal point. If Peter is not able to save himself, output "SOS".
