We study the water jug problem and obtain new lower and upper bounds on the minimum number of measuring steps. These bounds are tight and significantly improve previous results. We prove that to compute the crucial number μc(x) (i.e., min x=x·c ||x||1, where c ∈ N, x ∈ N, ||x||1 = ∑n i=1 |xi|) for estimating the minimum measuring steps is indeed a problem in P . Moreover, we prove that testing ...
