Description

A common pastime for poker players at a poker table is to shuffle stacks of chips. Shuffling chips is performed by starting with two stacks of poker chips, S₁ and S₂, each stack containing C chips. Each stack may contain chips of several different colors.

The actual shuffle operation is performed by interleaving a chip from S₁ with a chip from S₂ as shown below for C = 5:

The single resultant stack, S₁₂, contains 2 * C chips. The bottommost chip of S₁₂ is the bottommost chip from S₂. On top of that chip, is the bottommost chip from S₁. The interleaving process continues taking the 2^nd chip from the bottom of S₂ and placing that on S₁₂, followed by the 2^nd chip from the bottom of S₁ and so on until the topmost chip from S₁ is placed on top of S₁₂.

After the shuffle operation, S₁₂ is split into 2 new stacks by taking the bottommost C chips from S₁₂ to form a new S₁ and the topmost C chips from S₁₂ to form a new S₂. The shuffle operation may then be repeated to form a newS₁₂.

For this problem, you will write a program to determine if a particular resultant stack S₁₂ can be formed by shuffling two stacks some number of times.

Input

The first line of input contains a single integer N, (1 ≤ N ≤ 1000) which is the number of datasets that follow.

Each dataset consists of four lines of input. The first line of a dataset specifies an integer C, (1 ≤ C ≤ 100) which is the number of chips in each initial stack (S₁ and S₂). The second line of each dataset specifies the colors of each of theC chips in stack S₁, starting with the bottommost chip. The third line of each dataset specifies the colors of each of the C chips in stack S₂ starting with the bottommost chip. Colors are expressed as a single uppercase letter (A throughH). There are no blanks or separators between the chip colors. The fourth line of each dataset contains 2 * C uppercase letters (A through H), representing the colors of the desired result of the shuffling of S₁ and S₂ zero or more times. The bottommost chip’s color is specified first.

Output

Output for each dataset consists of a single line that displays the dataset number (1 though N), a space, and an integer value which is the minimum number of shuffle operations required to get the desired resultant stack. If the desired result can not be reached using the input for the dataset, display the value negative 1 (−1) for the number of shuffle operations.

题目大意：  已知两堆牌s1和s2的初始状态， 其牌数均为c，按给定规则能将他们相互交叉组合成一堆牌s12，再将s12的最底下的c块牌归为s1，最顶的c块牌归为s2，依此循环下去。    现在输入s1和s2的初始状态 以及 预想的最终状态s12  问s1 s2经过多少次洗牌之后，最终能达到状态s12，若永远不可能相同，则输出"-1"。    

解题思路：  很浅白的模拟题= = 不懂为什么别人要把它归类到广搜。。。所以我又重新分类了。。。 

代码：

#include<cstdio>
#include<cstring>
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
#define N 1010
char s1[N],s2[N],str[N],shuffle[N],goal[N];
int x,n;
inline int dfs(){
    int step=,x,y,i;
    for(;;){
        step++;
        x=y=;
        for(int i=;i<*n;i++){
            if(i%==)
                shuffle[i]=s2[x++];
            else
                shuffle[i]=s1[y++];
        }
        shuffle[*n]='\0';
        if(strcmp(shuffle,goal)==) return step;
        if(strcmp(shuffle,str)==)  return -;
        strncpy(s1,shuffle,n);
        s1[n]='\0';
        strncpy(s2,shuffle+n,n);
        s2[n]='\0';
    }
}
int main(){
    cin>>x;
    for(int t=;t<=x;t++){
        cin>>n;
        cin>>s1>>s2>>goal;
        strncpy(str,s1,n);
        strncpy(str+n,s2,n);
        str[*n]='\0';
        cout<<t<<" "<<dfs()<<endl;
    }
    return ;
}
