CF2112B.Shrinking Array
Shrinking Array
Let's call an array beautiful if it consists of at least two elements and there exists a position such that (where is the absolute value of ).
You are given an array , and as long as it consists of at least two elements, you can perform the following operation:
- Choose two adjacent positions and in the array .
- Choose an integer such that $\min(a_i, a_{i + 1}) \le x \le \max(a_i, a_{i + 1})$.
- Remove the numbers and from the array, and insert the number in their place. Obviously, the size of the array will decrease by .
Calculate the minimum number of operations required to make the array beautiful, or report that it is impossible.
Input
The first line contains one integer () — the number of test cases.
The first line of each test case contains one integer () — the size of the array .
The second line contains integers () — the array itself.
Output
For each test case, output one integer — the minimum number of operations needed to make the array beautiful, or if it is impossible to make it beautiful.
Note
In the first test case, the given array is already beautiful, as .
In the second test case, it is impossible to make the array beautiful, as applying the operation would reduce its size to less than two.
In the third test case, you can, for example, choose and and replace them with the number . The resulting array is beautiful.
In the fourth test case, you can, for example, choose and and replace them with the number . The resulting array is beautiful.
