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.

Ac in one go!

HINT:- An inverse permutation is a permutation which you will get by inserting position of an element at the position specified by the element value in the array.

Be careful while writing the output, costed me a WA for wrong spelling!

AC in one go...Everyone have right to celebrate

For those who are having a hard time to understand the problem.
Example: 1 4 3 2
1 is at the 1st position so, 1XXX
2 is at the 4th position so, 14XX
3 is at the 3rd position so, 143X
4 is at the 2nd position so, 1432
Now the newly created number(inverse) is same as the previous one, so it's "ambiguous"

Take care of the sentence, "where the i-th number is the position of the integer i in the permutation" . Read it by considering the above examples mentioned in the question.

is 1,2,3,4 is ambigous or not?

AC after 4 hours:Happy Ending::

Can i get the corner cases for this.

always see people bragging about ac in one go but that just means they don't solve hard enough problems
