You are given a $$$^\dagger $$$ bracket sequence $$$S$$$.
You can do the following operation any number of times(possibly zero):
$$$^\dagger $$$ A bracket sequence is any non-empty sequence of opening and closing parentheses.
$$$^\ddagger $$$ A bracket sequence is called a correct bracket sequence if it's possible to obtain a correct arithmetic expression by inserting characters '+' and '1' into this sequence. For example, the sequences '(())()', '()' and '(()(()))' are correct, while the bracket sequences ')(', '(()' and '(()))(' are not correct.
The only line of the input contains a string $$$S$$$ $$$( 1 \le |S| \le 2*10^{5} )$$$ — consisting only of characters '(' and ')'.
Print 'Yes' if you can make the string correct bracket sequence, and 'No' otherwise.
((()))
Yes
In the sample, there are many ways to achieve a correct bracket sequence, one of them is to do no operations, another one is by two operations you can delete the fourth and fifth brackets and place them after the first and second brackets in order then the sequence becomes '()()()'.
The SCPC (Syrian Competitive Programming Contest) is getting closer. The Richard Fans decided to meet there, but they are in different houses far from each other, so choosing a house to meet in is not simple. You are given an array $$$P$$$ of length $$$N$$$ where $$$P_i$$$ denotes the position of the $$$i_{th}$$$ person's house.
They want to choose the best place such that they all walk as few as possible. Formally, they want a house that minimizes the total distance for all of them. They gave you their house positions to help them choose the best meeting point among these houses.
We denote the distance between two houses $$$i,j$$$ as $$$|P_i-P_j|$$$.
Here, $$$|X|$$$ denotes the absolute value of $$$X$$$, for example $$$|-10| = 10$$$, $$$|5| = 5$$$
You need to find and print the best house $$$P_i$$$ that minimizes the total distance for all fans.
The first line contains one integer $$$N$$$ ($$$1 \leq N \leq 2*10^5$$$) — the length of the array, $$$N$$$ is Odd.
The second line contains $$$N$$$ integers $$$P_1, P_2, \ldots, P_n$$$ ($$$1 \leq P_i \leq 10^9$$$) — the elements of the array.
Print one line containing the value $$$P_i$$$ that satisfies the minimum distance.

In the sample test, the total distance after choosing house at position $$$4$$$ is: $$$|7-4| + |3-4| + |5-4| + |1-4| + |4-4| = 8$$$
Two players are playing a game with a pile of $$$N$$$ stones. The rules of the game are as follows:
The player who cannot make a move loses the game. Determine the winner if both players play optimally.
$$$^\dagger$$$The most significant bit (MSB) is the value of the highest position that has a $$$1$$$ in the binary representation. For example, for $$$13_{10}=1101_{2}$$$, the most significant bit is $$$8_{10}=1000_2$$$
Each test consists of multiple testcases. The first line contains an integer $$$t$$$ $$$(1\le t \le 10^5)$$$ — the number of testcases.
The single line of each testcase contains an integer $$$N$$$ $$$( 1 \le N \le 10^{18} )$$$ — the number of stones in the pile.
Print for each testcase, 'First' if the first player wins, or 'Second' otherwise.

Finally, it's Tuesday, the day of the big contest (Div. 1). Bassam's rating is near 2100, so as a preparation, Bassam is going to buy his favorite drink, "3 in 1". He got everything set up and sat at his desk waiting for the contest to start. He solved the first problem, the second, the third—Bassam was on a roll! But suddenly, he spilled his drink all over the keyboard. Thankfully, the keyboard kept working, and Bassam continued his contest. After he finished, he went to chat with his friend Jamal, but to his surprise, the question mark key didn't work in English; when pressed, it printed the sentince "Ba3d Khamsa". So Bassam was stuck typing every question ending in "Ba3d Khamsa".
After all that, Jamal found a magical way to repair the keyboard. Now, Bassam always has a string $$$S$$$. Jamal considers a string $$$S$$$ magical if none of its substrings of length at least $$$2$$$ is a palindrome.
A palindrome is a string that reads the same backward as forward, for example strings 'z', 'aaa', 'aba', 'abccba' are palindromes, but strings 'codeforces', 'reality', 'ab' are not.
Bassam can perform this operation any number of times (possibly zero):
Now, you are given a string $$$S$$$ of size $$$N$$$ and $$$Q$$$ queries. For each query, you are given $$$L, R$$$ ($$$1 \le L \le R \le N$$$), and you should print the minimum number of operations required to make the substring $$$S[L:R]$$$ a magical string.
Note: The operations are hypothetical and do not change the original string $$$S$$$. You only need to compute the number of operations for each query.
The first line contains one integer $$$N$$$ ($$$1 \le N \le 10^5$$$) — the length of Bassam's string.
The second line contains a string $$$S$$$ of length $$$N$$$ consisting of lowercase English letters.
The third line contains one integer $$$Q$$$ ($$$1 \le Q \le 10^5$$$) — the number of queries.
Then, $$$Q$$$ lines follow. Each line contains two integers, $$$L$$$ and $$$R$$$ ($$$1 \le L \le R \le N$$$) — the interval for the corresponding query.
For each query, print the corresponding answer.

One day, Sasha received a mysterious box containing two bracelets.
Sasha loves playing with letters, and she decided to use her wisdom to rearrange them. Her goal was to form the $$$^\dagger$$$lexicographically minimal $$$^\ddagger$$$palindrome possible on the second bracelet.
To achieve this, she must transfer all the letters from the first bracelet to the second one. Since the second bracelet is fixed on the left, she can only add letters to its right end.
The process works as follows:
Your task is to help Sasha determine: If it is possible to form a palindrome on the second bracelet, print the lexicographically minimal palindrome string. Otherwise, print -1.
$$$^\dagger$$$ String $$$x$$$ is lexicographically less than string $$$y$$$, if either $$$x$$$ is a prefix of $$$y$$$ (and $$$x \neq y$$$), or there exists such $$$i$$$ ($$$1 \le i \le \min(|x|, |y|)$$$), that $$$x_i \lt y_i$$$, and for any $$$j$$$ $$$(1 \le j \lt i)$$$ $$$x_j = y_j$$$. Here $$$|a|$$$ denotes the length of the string $$$a$$$.
$$$^\ddagger$$$ A palindrome is a string that reads the same backward as forward, for example strings 'z', 'aaa', 'aba', 'abccba' are palindromes, but strings 'codeforces', 'reality', 'ab' are not.
The first and only line contains a string $$$S$$$ consisting of lowercase English letters $$$(1 \leq |S| \leq 40)$$$ — representing the first bracelet.
Print a string $$$T$$$ that corresponds to the given trace — the second bracelet.
If there is no solution output -1 .

The distribution for the first sample provided above:
Abdulghafour is a player who loves football. His friend Abo Al-Jood does too.
Every time they play, each one is on a different team. And of course, the team that Abo Al-Jood plays on always loses. But this time, Abdulghafour gave Abo Al-Jood a condition. He told him he must solve a task if he wants to be on the same team and win.
Help Abo Al-Jood solve the task so he can play on the winning team.
You are given an array $$$A$$$ of $$$N$$$ integers. Also, you are given $$$Q$$$ queries, there are two types of queries:
For a find query, If such a position $$$j$$$ exists, print any valid $$$j$$$. If no such position exists, print -1.
The first line contains an integer $$$N$$$ ($$$1 \le N \le 10^5$$$) — the length of the array.
The second line contains $$$N$$$ integers $$$A_1, A_2, \ldots, A_N$$$ ($$$1 \le A_i \le 10^9$$$) — the elements of the array.
The third line contains an integer $$$Q$$$ ($$$1 \le Q \le 10^5$$$) — the number of queries.
Each of the next $$$Q$$$ lines contains a query in one of the following forms:
For each query of type $$$2$$$, output any valid index $$$j$$$ that satisfies the condition, or -1 if no such index exists.

There are $$$10$$$ judges: Bassam, Abdulghafour, Maysan, Aboljood, Nawar, Jamal, Hassan, Amjad, Aysha, and Rama.
They have already agreed on $$$11$$$ problems for a contest and $$$10$$$ extra problems : $$$9$$$ of them are extra easy, and one of them is the hardest, which you are reading now.
However, even the contest problem list is already full, they decided to add one extra problem to these $$$11$$$ problems.
There are $$$10$$$ problems to choose from, the problems were numbered from 1 to 10 to decide which problem to add, Abo-Alcode gives each judge a paper on which they write the number of the problem he/she wants to be added $$$[1,2,...,10]$$$.
Each judge selects a problem, and writes a number (from $$$1$$$ to $$$10$$$) on her/his paper.
The last problem will be selected as follows:
Which problem number was added to the contest?
The first and only line contains $$$10$$$ integers $$$A_1,A_2,\ldots,A_{10}$$$ $$$(1 \le A_i \le 10)$$$ — the chosen problem number for each judge.
Print a single integer between $$$1$$$ and $$$10$$$ — the number of the problem that was added.

Finally, the electricity is back on and will last for $$$H$$$ hours before it goes out again. You have clothes to wash. You have $$$N$$$ different colors of clothes. For each color $$$i$$$, an integer $$$A_i$$$ represents the number of items of that color.
You have a washing machine. In each washing cycle (which takes one hour), you can wash:
Can you determine the minimum number $$$P$$$ that will allow you to wash all the clothes before the power goes out? If it is impossible, output $$$-1$$$.
The first line contains three integers $$$N$$$, $$$K$$$, $$$H$$$ ($$$1 \le N \le 10^6$$$, $$$1 \le K \le 10^6$$$, $$$1 \le H \le 10^9$$$) — the length of the array, the maximum allowed items per color, the number of hours, respectively.
The second line contains $$$N$$$ integers $$$A_1, A_2, \dots, A_N$$$ ($$$1 \le A_i \le 10^9$$$) — the elements of the array.
Print a single integer, the minimum $$$P$$$ that allows you to wash all clothes within $$$H$$$ hours. If it is impossible, print $$$-1$$$.

Hassan and his friend Naya are nerds at math and are always fighting about who is better, as they are in the same class. One day their coach Bassam decided to give them an array $$$A$$$ of size $$$N$$$ and they will play the following game alternately for $$$N-1$$$ rounds.
Naya plays first, at each round a player takes any two elements $$$X$$$, $$$Y$$$ from the array, erases them, then adds $$$\gcd(X,Y)$$$ to the end of $$$A$$$. It can be shown that after $$$N-1$$$ rounds $$$A$$$ will have only one element.
For example, let $$$A=[3,8,5,12,1]$$$, if a player chooses $$$8$$$ and $$$12$$$, then $$$A$$$ becomes $$$[3,5,1,4]$$$.
Naya wins if at the end of the game $$$A=[1]$$$, otherwise Hassan wins. Your task is to find the winner of the game, knowing that both players play optimally.
Here, $$$\gcd(X,Y)$$$ denotes the greatest common divisor for $$$X$$$ and $$$Y$$$, for example $$$\gcd(12,8)=4$$$ and $$$\gcd(15,14)=1$$$.
The first line contains a single integer $$$N$$$ $$$(1 \le N \le 2*10^5)$$$ — the length of the array.
The second line contains $$$N$$$ integers $$$A_1,A_2,...,A_N$$$ $$$(1 \le A_i \le 10^9)$$$ — the elements of the array.
Print a single line, the winner of the game — 'Hassan' or 'Naya'.
