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

I am getting rte with memory usage of 2000M. Please Help. <snip>. Using lca + rmq(sparse table)

build ->o(n)
query->o(sqrt(n)) works!!

My 100th :)

TAKE "1" as ROOT node always.

I take root node as node whose parent is not given in input.--> WA

Same algorithm:
C++ AC with time 0.37 .
Java TLE
:S

AC in one go!
just make level of both nodes same and then trace their common parent :)

I just used a single set of additional back-pointers (BIT-like) and a level tag, 0.02s. Much faster to code than <O(N), O(1)> solution.

LCA with RMQ

Node 1 is always the root :D
