PERMUT2 - Ambiguous Permutations


Some programming contest problems are really tricky: not only do they require a different output format from what you might have expected, but also the sample output does not show the difference. For an example, let us look at permutations.

A permutation of the integers 1 to n is an ordering of these integers. So the natural way to represent a permutation is to list the integers in this order. With n = 5, a permutation might look like 2, 3, 4, 5, 1.

However, there is another possibility of representing a permutation: You create a list of numbers where the i-th number is the position of the integer i in the permutation. Let us call this second possibility an inverse permutation. The inverse permutation for the sequence above is 5, 1, 2, 3, 4.

An ambiguous permutation is a permutation which cannot be distinguished from its inverse permutation. The permutation 1, 4, 3, 2 for example is ambiguous, because its inverse permutation is the same. To get rid of such annoying sample test cases, you have to write a program which detects if a given permutation is ambiguous or not.

Input Specification

The input contains several test cases.

The first line of each test case contains an integer n (1 ≤ n ≤ 100000). Then a permutation of the integers 1 to n follows in the next line. There is exactly one space character between consecutive integers.

You can assume that every integer between 1 and n appears exactly once in the permutation.

The last test case is followed by a zero.

Output Specification

For each test case output whether the permutation is ambiguous or not. Adhere to the format shown in the sample output.

Sample Input

1 4 3 2
5
2 3 4 5 1
1
1
0

Sample Output

ambiguous

Don't use Python. it caused me 2 TLEs in such an easy question :(

good question

Getting a WA, even though the given test case works :(

Thanks @Adrian Kuegel.
Ac on 1st go. Done in O(n);
read the comment of Adrian Kuegel, The Main Logic is given there.

@gulbarga master check whether ur writing ambiguous and not ambiguous properly....cost me 1 wa. :)

gulbarga master: 2015-02-20 06:59:41

can i pls have some additional test cases for this ? The ones given, work for me and yet i get a WA.
