You are given two strings, A and B. Answer, what is the smallest number of operations you need to
transform A to B?

Operations are:

  1. Delete one letter from one of strings
  2. Insert one letter into one of strings
  3. Replace one of letters from one of strings with another letter

Input

T - number of test cases

For each test case:

  • String A
  • String B

Both strings will contain only uppercase characters and they won't be longer than 2000 characters. 

There will be 10 test cases in data set.

Output

For each test case, one line, minimum number of operations.

Example

Input:

Those who all are getting SIGSEGV error try to define the variables globally that might help!!!

no need of an array of length 3000...the constraints in the problem are correct
