CodeForces 706C Hard problem【dp】

Description

Vasiliy is fond of solving different tasks. Today he found one he wasn't able to solve himself, so he asks you to help.

Vasiliy is given n strings consisting of lowercase English letters. He wants them to be sorted in lexicographical order (as in the dictionary), but he is not allowed to swap any of them. The only operation he is allowed to do is to reverse any of them (first character becomes last, second becomes one before last and so on).

To reverse the i-th string Vasiliy has to spent ci units of energy. He is interested in the minimum amount of energy he has to spent in order to have strings sorted in lexicographical order.

String A is lexicographically smaller than string B if it is shorter than B (|A| < |B|) and is its prefix, or if none of them is a prefix of the other and at the first position where they differ character in A is smaller than the character in B.

For the purpose of this problem, two equal strings nearby do not break the condition of sequence being sorted lexicographically.

Input

The first line of the input contains a single integer n (2 ≤ n ≤ 100 000) — the number of strings.

The second line contains n integers ci (0 ≤ ci ≤ 109), the i-th of them is equal to the amount of energy Vasiliy has to spent in order to reverse the i-th string.

Then follow n lines, each containing a string consisting of lowercase English letters. The total length of these strings doesn't exceed 100 000.

Output

If it is impossible to reverse some of the strings such that they will be located in lexicographical order, print  - 1. Otherwise, print the minimum total amount of energy Vasiliy has to spent.

Sample Input

Input
2
1 2
ba
ac
Output
1
Input
3
1 3 1
aa
ba
ac
Output
1
Input
2
5 5
bbb
aaa
Output
-1
Input
2
3 3
aaa
aa
Output
-1

Hint

In the second sample one has to reverse string 2 or string 3. To amount of energy required to reverse the string 3 is smaller.

In the third sample, both strings do not change after reverse and they go in the wrong order, so the answer is  - 1.

In the fourth sample, both strings consists of characters 'a' only, but in the sorted order string "aa" should go before string "aaa", thus the answer is  - 1.


/*
    题意:给你n个字符串,要求满足字典序排序.每个操作需要花费能量,操作只能反转.如果不能满足题意输出-1.
    类型:动态规划
    分析:dp[i][0]表示满足字典序下第i个字符串不翻转的费用
         dp[i][1]表示满足字典序下第i个字符串翻转的费用
         初始条件dp[1][0]=0;dp[1][1]=cost[1];
         然后注意转移状态别写错,还有long long 就行了

引用\[1\]中提到了一种树形动态规划的方法来解决CodeForces - 982C问题。在这个问题中,subtree指的是子连通块,而不是子树。为了使cnt_white - cnt_black尽可能大,可以使用两次树形动态规划来求解。第一次是自底向上的过程,维护一个dp数组,表示以每个节点为根的子树中的最大连通块。第二次是自顶向下的过程,处理自底向上过程中无法包含的树链所代表的子树。在第二次遍历中,需要维护一个sum变量,用于存储树链所代表的子树的贡献。根据ans\[u\]的正负,决定是否能对相邻的子节点做出贡献。如果ans\[u\]为正,则减去dp\[v\]就是树链所代表的子树的权值。最终,ans\[u\]代表包含节点u在内的子连通块的最大权值。\[1\] 问题: CodeForces - 982C 树形DP是什么问题?如何解决? 回答: CodeForces - 982C是一个树形动态规划问题。在这个问题中,需要求解子连通块的最大权值和,使得cnt_white - cnt_black尽可能大。解决这个问题的方法是使用两次树形动态规划。第一次是自底向上的过程,维护一个dp数组,表示以每个节点为根的子树中的最大连通块。第二次是自顶向下的过程,处理自底向上过程中无法包含的树链所代表的子树。在第二次遍历中,需要维护一个sum变量,用于存储树链所代表的子树的贡献。根据ans\[u\]的正负,决定是否能对相邻的子节点做出贡献。最终,ans\[u\]代表包含节点u在内的子连通块的最大权值。\[1\] #### 引用[.reference_title] - *1* *2* [CodeForces - 1324F Maximum White Subtree(树形dp)](https://blog.csdn.net/qq_45458915/article/details/104831678)[target="_blank" data-report-click={"spm":"1018.2226.3001.9630","extra":{"utm_source":"vip_chatgpt_common_search_pc_result","utm_medium":"distribute.pc_search_result.none-task-cask-2~all~insert_cask~default-1-null.142^v91^koosearch_v1,239^v3^insert_chatgpt"}} ] [.reference_item] [ .reference_list ]
