858\. Mirror Reflection
Medium
There is a special square room with mirrors on each of the four walls. Except for the southwest corner, there are receptors on each of the remaining corners, numbered `0`, `1`, and `2`.
The square room has walls of length `p` and a laser ray from the southwest corner first meets the east wall at a distance `q` from the 0th
receptor.
Given the two integers `p` and `q`, return _the number of the receptor that the ray meets first_.
The test cases are guaranteed so that the ray will meet a receptor eventually.
**Example 1:**

**Input:** p = 2, q = 1
**Output:** 2
**Explanation:** The ray meets receptor 2 the first time it gets reflected back to the left wall.
**Example 2:**
**Input:** p = 3, q = 1
**Output:** 1
**Constraints:**
* `1 <= q <= p <= 1000`
