Provide tags and a correct Python 3 solution for this coding contest problem. A median in an array with the length of n is an element which occupies position number <image> after we sort the elements in the non-decreasing order (the array elements are numbered starting with 1). A median of an array (2, 6, 1, 2, 3) is the number 2, and a median of array (0, 96, 17, 23) β€” the number 17. We define an expression <image> as the integer part of dividing number a by number b. One day Vasya showed Petya an array consisting of n integers and suggested finding the array's median. Petya didn't even look at the array and said that it equals x. Petya is a very honest boy, so he decided to add several numbers to the given array so that the median of the resulting array would be equal to x. Petya can add any integers from 1 to 105 to the array, including the same numbers. Of course, he can add nothing to the array. If a number is added multiple times, then we should consider it the number of times it occurs. It is not allowed to delete of change initial numbers of the array. While Petya is busy distracting Vasya, your task is to find the minimum number of elements he will need. Input The first input line contains two space-separated integers n and x (1 ≀ n ≀ 500, 1 ≀ x ≀ 105) β€” the initial array's length and the required median's value. The second line contains n space-separated numbers β€” the initial array. The elements of the array are integers from 1 to 105. The array elements are not necessarily different. Output Print the only integer β€” the minimum number of elements Petya needs to add to the array so that its median equals x. Examples Input 3 10 10 20 30 Output 1 Input 3 4 1 2 3 Output 4 Note In the first sample we can add number 9 to array (10, 20, 30). The resulting array (9, 10, 20, 30) will have a median in position <image>, that is, 10. In the second sample you should add numbers 4, 5, 5, 5. The resulting array has median equal to 4.

Evaluate the correctness of the submitted Python 3 solution to the coding contest problem. Provide a "Yes" or "No" response. A median in an array with the length of n is an element which occupies position number <image> after we sort the elements in the non-decreasing order (the array elements are numbered starting with 1). A median of an array (2, 6, 1, 2, 3) is the number 2, and a median of array (0, 96, 17, 23) β€” the number 17. We define an expression <image> as the integer part of dividing number a by number b. One day Vasya showed Petya an array consisting of n integers and suggested finding the array's median. Petya didn't even look at the array and said that it equals x. Petya is a very honest boy, so he decided to add several numbers to the given array so that the median of the resulting array would be equal to x. Petya can add any integers from 1 to 105 to the array, including the same numbers. Of course, he can add nothing to the array. If a number is added multiple times, then we should consider it the number of times it occurs. It is not allowed to delete of change initial numbers of the array. While Petya is busy distracting Vasya, your task is to find the minimum number of elements he will need. Input The first input line contains two space-separated integers n and x (1 ≀ n ≀ 500, 1 ≀ x ≀ 105) β€” the initial array's length and the required median's value. The second line contains n space-separated numbers β€” the initial array. The elements of the array are integers from 1 to 105. The array elements are not necessarily different. Output Print the only integer β€” the minimum number of elements Petya needs to add to the array so that its median equals x.

Provide tags and a correct Python 3 solution for this coding contest problem. This is an interactive problem. You have to use flush operation right after printing each line. For example, in C++ you should use function fflush(stdout), in Java β€” System.out.flush(), in Pascal β€” flush(output) and in Python β€” sys.stdout.flush(). In this problem, you need to find maximal and minimal elements of an array. What could be simpler? You can imagine that the jury has an array, and initially you know the only number n β€” array's length. Array's elements are numbered from 1 to n. You are allowed to compare two elements of the array by using their indices i and j. There are three possible responses to this query: '<' (if ai is less than aj), '=' (if ai is equal to aj) and finally '>' (if ai is greater than aj). It's known that it's always possible to find both maximal and minimal elements of the array by using no more than <image> comparisons, where ⌈ xβŒ‰ is the result of rounding x up. Write the program that will find positions of the minimum and the maximum in the jury's array of length n, by using no more than f(n) comparisons. Interaction Each test for this problem will contain one or more arrays. You have to find positions of minimal and maximal elements for each of these arrays. The first line of the input contains integer T (1 ≀ T ≀ 1000) β€” number of arrays in the test. Thus, at the beginning, you program should read number T, and then it should solve the problem for T jury's arrays one by one. Then input for each array goes. Firstly, your program has to read the number n (1 ≀ n ≀ 50) β€” the length of the array. It will be provided in the next line of the input. Further, your program can perform comparisons or report that the answer is found. * To perform a comparison, you have to output string of the following pattern Β«? i jΒ» (i and j must be integer numbers from 1 to n) β€” the indices of the elements to compare in the current query. * To report the indices of minimal and maximal elements of the hidden array, your program have to output a line in the form Β«! i jΒ» (i and j must be integer numbers from 1 to n), where i is an index of the minimal element of array, and j is an index of the maximal element of the array. If there are several possible answers to the problem, you can output any of them. There are several possible responses for a comparison: * '<' β€” if ai is less than aj, * '=' β€” if ai is equal to aj, * '>' β€” if ai is greater than aj. For an array of length n your program can make at most <image> comparisons. Note that the operation of reporting an answer (Β«! i jΒ» ) is not included into the value of f(n). After the answer is reported, your program has to solve the problem for the next array or it should terminate if all T arrays are processed. Example Input 2 2 Β  &gt; Β  3 Β  = Β  = Β  Output Β  Β  ? 1 2 Β  ! 2 1 Β  ? 3 1 Β  ? 2 1 Β  ! 2 3

Provide tags and a correct Python 3 solution for this coding contest problem. This is an interactive problem. You have to use flush operation right after printing each line. For example, in C++ you should use function fflush(stdout), in Java β€” System.out.flush(), in Pascal β€” flush(output) and in Python β€” sys.stdout.flush(). In this problem, you need to find maximal and minimal elements of an array. What could be simpler? You can imagine that the jury has an array, and initially you know the only number n β€” array's length. Array's elements are numbered from 1 to n. You are allowed to compare two elements of the array by using their indices i and j. There are three possible responses to this query: '<' (if ai is less than aj), '=' (if ai is equal to aj) and finally '>' (if ai is greater than aj). It's known that it's always possible to find both maximal and minimal elements of the array by using no more than <image> comparisons, where ⌈ xβŒ‰ is the result of rounding x up. Write the program that will find positions of the minimum and the maximum in the jury's array of length n, by using no more than f(n) comparisons. Interaction Each test for this problem will contain one or more arrays. You have to find positions of minimal and maximal elements for each of these arrays. The first line of the input contains integer T (1 ≀ T ≀ 1000) β€” number of arrays in the test. Thus, at the beginning, you program should read number T, and then it should solve the problem for T jury's arrays one by one. Then input for each array goes. Firstly, your program has to read the number n (1 ≀ n ≀ 50) β€” the length of the array. It will be provided in the next line of the input. Further, your program can perform comparisons or report that the answer is found. * To perform a comparison, you have to output string of the following pattern Β«? i jΒ» (i and j must be integer numbers from 1 to n) β€” the indices of the elements to compare in the current query. * To report the indices of minimal and maximal elements of the hidden array, your program have to output a line in the form Β«! i jΒ» (i and j must be integer numbers from 1 to n), where i is an index of the minimal element of array, and j is an index of the maximal element of the array. If there are several possible answers to the problem, you can output any of them. There are several possible responses for a comparison: * '<' β€” if ai is less than aj, * '=' β€” if ai is equal to aj, * '>' β€” if ai is greater than aj. For an array of length n your program can make at most <image> comparisons. Note that the operation of reporting an answer (Β«! i jΒ» ) is not included into the value of f(n). After the answer is reported, your program has to solve the problem for the next array or it should terminate if all T arrays are processed.

For an array of length n your program can make at most <image> comparisons. Note that the operation of reporting an answer (Β«! i jΒ» ) is not included into the value of f(n). After the answer is reported, your program has to solve the problem for the next array or it should terminate if all T arrays are processed.

Evaluate the correctness of the submitted Python 3 solution to the coding contest problem. Provide a "Yes" or "No" response. This is an interactive problem. You have to use flush operation right after printing each line. For example, in C++ you should use function fflush(stdout), in Java β€” System.out.flush(), in Pascal β€” flush(output) and in Python β€” sys.stdout.flush(). In this problem, you need to find maximal and minimal elements of an array. What could be simpler? You can imagine that the jury has an array, and initially you know the only number n β€” array's length. Array's elements are numbered from 1 to n. You are allowed to compare two elements of the array by using their indices i and j. There are three possible responses to this query: '<' (if ai is less than aj), '=' (if ai is equal to aj) and finally '>' (if ai is greater than aj). It's known that it's always possible to find both maximal and minimal elements of the array by using no more than <image> comparisons, where ⌈ xβŒ‰ is the result of rounding x up. Write the program that will find positions of the minimum and the maximum in the jury's array of length n, by using no more than f(n) comparisons. Interaction Each test for this problem will contain one or more arrays. You have to find positions of minimal and maximal elements for each of these arrays. The first line of the input contains integer T (1 ≀ T ≀ 1000) β€” number of arrays in the test. Thus, at the beginning, you program should read number T, and then it should solve the problem for T jury's arrays one by one. Then input for each array goes. Firstly, your program has to read the number n (1 ≀ n ≀ 50) β€” the length of the array. It will be provided in the next line of the input. Further, your program can perform comparisons or report that the answer is found. * To perform a comparison, you have to output string of the following pattern Β«? i jΒ» (i and j must be integer numbers from 1 to n) β€” the indices of the elements to compare in the current query. * To report the indices of minimal and maximal elements of the hidden array, your program have to output a line in the form Β«! i jΒ» (i and j must be integer numbers from 1 to n), where i is an index of the minimal element of array, and j is an index of the maximal element of the array. If there are several possible answers to the problem, you can output any of them.

Provide tags and a correct Python 3 solution for this coding contest problem. We guessed a permutation p consisting of n integers. The permutation of length n is the array of length n where each element from 1 to n appears exactly once. This permutation is a secret for you. For each position r from 2 to n we chose some other index l (l < r) and gave you the segment p_l, p_{l + 1}, ..., p_r in sorted order (i.e. we rearranged the elements of this segment in a way that the elements of this segment are sorted). Thus, you are given exactly n-1 segments of the initial permutation but elements inside each segment are sorted. The segments are given to you in random order. For example, if the secret permutation is p=[3, 1, 4, 6, 2, 5] then the possible given set of segments can be: * [2, 5, 6] * [4, 6] * [1, 3, 4] * [1, 3] * [1, 2, 4, 6] Your task is to find any suitable permutation (i.e. any permutation corresponding to the given input data). It is guaranteed that the input data corresponds to some permutation (i.e. such permutation exists). You have to answer t independent test cases. Input The first line of the input contains one integer t (1 ≀ t ≀ 100) β€” the number of test cases. Then t test cases follow. The first line of the test case contains one integer n (2 ≀ n ≀ 200) β€” the length of the permutation. The next n-1 lines describe given segments. The i-th line contains the description of the i-th segment. The line starts with the integer k_i (2 ≀ k_i ≀ n) β€” the length of the i-th segment. Then k_i integers follow. All integers in a line are distinct, sorted in ascending order, between 1 and n, inclusive. It is guaranteed that the required p exists for each test case. It is also guaranteed that the sum of n over all test cases does not exceed 200 (βˆ‘ n ≀ 200). Output For each test case, print the answer: n integers p_1, p_2, ..., p_n (1 ≀ p_i ≀ n, all p_i should be distinct) β€” any suitable permutation (i.e. any permutation corresponding to the test case input).
