LCA - Lowest Common Ancestor

no tags 

A tree is an undirected graph in which any two vertices are connected by exactly one simple path. In other words, any connected graph without cycles is a tree. - Wikipedia 

The lowest common ancestor (LCA) is a concept in graph theory and computer science. Let T be a rooted tree with N nodes. The lowest common ancestor is defined between two nodes v and w as the lowest node in T that has both v and w as descendants (where we allow a node to be a descendant of itself). - Wikipedia

Your task in this problem is to find the LCA of any two given nodes v and w in a given tree T.

For example the LCA of nodes 9 and 12 in this tree is the node number 3.

Input

The first line of input will be the number of test cases. Each test case will start with a number N the number of nodes in the tree, 1 <= N <= 1,000. Nodes are numbered from 1 to N. The next N lines each one will start with a number M the number of child nodes of the Nth node, 0 <= M <= 999 followed by M numbers the child nodes of the Nth node. The next line will be a number Q the number of queries you have to answer for the given tree T, 1 <= Q <= 1000. The next Q lines each one will have two number v and w in which you have to find the LCA of v and w in T, 1 <= v, w <= 1,000.

Input will guarantee that there is only one root and no cycles.

Output

For each test case print Q + 1 lines, The first line will have “Case C:” without quotes where C is the case number starting with 1. The next Q lines should be the LCA of the given v and w respectively.

Example

Input:
1
7
3 2 3 4
0
3 5 6 7
0
0
0
0
2
5 7
2 7

Output:
Case 1:
3
1

got WA for not writing case!!And spent 30 mins debugging code!!!....nd ya brute force does work here.

Kevin Sebastian: 2015-01-19 05:17:43

pls tell the correct format of output..wen shud each line come

Kevin Sebastian: 2015-01-19 05:17:43

@author please tell me what is wrong with my code getting WA

read the question carefully... ;) if u missd anything u will be in hell trouble..
n get TLEs... :P

$!:D: 2015-01-19 05:17:43

@Akash thnxx got AC :)

i ws making my vector array elements set to 0 resulting in TLE
but gt accepted on c++4.3.2
c++4.0.8 gve tle for it :P

@$!:D I did it the same way u did..my solution is accepted..the only problem i found out is that u have printed "Case t" which always gives number of test cases and not the case number..and u have printed it before taking u and v input..try submitting it after correcting this error..and try compiling it with 4.0.0.8 bcos sometimes 4.3.2 gives compilation error or TLE but it compiles with another compiler

getting tle plzz help in testcase 0 only!!
my soln. is O(Q*(log(N)*N)
