Labyrinth

Labyrinth

The northern part of the Pyramid contains a very large and complicated labyrinth. The labyrinth is divided into square blocks, each of them either filled by rock, or free. There is also a little hook on the floor in the center of every free block. The ACM have found that two of the hooks must be connected by a rope that runs through the hooks in every block on the path between the connected ones. When the rope is fastened, a secret door opens. The problem is that we do not know which hooks to connect. That means also that the neccessary length of the rope is unknown. Your task is to determine the maximum length of the rope we could need for a given labyrinth.
Input
The input consists of T test cases. The number of them (T) is given on the first line of the input file. Each test case begins with a line containing two integers C and R (3 <= C,R <= 1000) indicating the number of columns and rows. Then exactly R lines follow, each containing C characters. These characters specify the labyrinth. Each of them is either a hash mark (#) or a period (.). Hash marks represent rocks, periods are free blocks. It is possible to walk between neighbouring blocks only, where neighbouring blocks are blocks sharing a common side. We cannot walk diagonally and we cannot step out of the labyrinth. 
The labyrinth is designed in such a way that there is exactly one path between any two free blocks. Consequently, if we find the proper hooks to connect, it is easy to find the right path connecting them.
Output
Your program must print exactly one line of output for each test case. The line must contain the sentence "Maximum rope length is X." where Xis the length of the longest path between any two free blocks, measured in blocks.
Sample Input
2
3 3
###
#.#
###
7 6
#######
#.#.###
#.#.###
#.#.#.#
#.....#
#######
Sample Output
Maximum rope length is 0.
Maximum rope length is 8.
Hint
Huge input, scanf is recommended. 
If you use recursion, maybe stack overflow. and now C++/c 's stack size is larger than G++/gcc

一个菜鸡罢了:哥们,感觉你的简历还是有点问题的,我提几点建议,看看能不能提供一点帮助 1. ”新余学院“别加粗,课程不清楚是否有必要写,感觉版面不如拿来写一下做过的事情,教育经历是你的弱势就尽量少写 2. “干部及社团经历”和“自我评价”删掉 3. 论文后面的“录用”和“小修”啥的都删掉,默认全录用,问了再说,反正小修毕业前肯定能发出来 4. 工作经验和研究成果没有体现你的个人贡献,着重包装一下个人贡献
