? 1 ? 2 ? ... ? n = k problem

The problem

Given the following formula, one can set operators '+' or '-' instead of each '?', in order to obtain a given k
? 1 ? 2 ? ... ? n = k

For example: to obtain k = 12 , the expression to be used will be:
- 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 - 7 = 12 
with n = 7

The Input

The first line is the number of test cases, followed by a blank line.

Each test case of the input contains integer k (0<=|k|<=1000000000).

Each test case will be separated by a single line.

The Output

For each test case, your program should print the minimal possible n (1<=n) to obtain k with the above formula.

Print a blank line between the outputs for two consecutive test cases.

Sample Input

Sample Output

数学思维：
看似复杂，情况很多种，乍一看摸不着头脑的一道题，让人心生畏惧，Don't panic
数学思维，找规律求解
对于0=1+2-3　　3
　　1=-1+2　　 2
　　2=1-2+3　　3
依次查看，每个数的结果好像没什么规律
再看，会发现，若1变为-1，实际上将原数-2
　　　　　　　2变为-2，实际上将原数-4　　　　均为偶数，我们进步了一大步，我感觉离成功不远了，代码铁定不复杂，只需要我们想清楚
　　我们持续+，直到数s>k,此时若(s-k)%2==0,说明，s可将组成s的数中的一部分变为负数来的到k
　　问题转化为求满足s>k&&(s-k)%2==0的数s时，所经历的最大数

注意输出格式！减少不必要的麻烦。

PS：像这种基本的找规律题,数学思维，看得出就看，看不出就试
