In 1953, David A. Huffman published his paper "A Method for the Construction of Minimum-Redundancy Codes", and hence printed his name in the history of computer science. As a professor who gives the final exam problem on Huffman codes, I am encountering a big problem: the Huffman codes are NOT unique. For example, given a string "aaaxuaxz", we can observe that the frequencies of the characters 'a', 'x', 'u' and 'z' are 4, 2, 1 and 1, respectively. We may either encode the symbols as {'a'=0, 'x'=10, 'u'=110, 'z'=111}, or in another way as {'a'=1, 'x'=01, 'u'=001, 'z'=000}, both compress the string into 14 bits. Another set of code can be given as {'a'=0, 'x'=11, 'u'=100, 'z'=101}, but {'a'=0, 'x'=01, 'u'=011, 'z'=001} is NOT correct since "aaaxuaxz" and "aazuaxax" can both be decoded from the code 00001011001001. The students are submitting all kinds of codes, and I need a computer program to help me determine which ones are correct and which ones are not.
Input Specification:
Each input file contains one test case. For each case, the first line gives an integer N (2≤N≤63), then followed by a line that contains all the N distinct characters and their frequencies in the following format:
c[1] f[1] c[2] f[2] ... c[N] f[N]
where c[i]
is a character chosen from {'0' - '9', 'a' - 'z', 'A' - 'Z', '_'}, and f[i]
is the frequency of c[i]
and is an integer no more than 1000. The next line gives a positive integer M (≤1000), then followed by M student submissions. Each student submission consists of N lines, each in the format:
c[i] code[i]
where c[i]
is the i
-th character and code[i]
is an non-empty string of no more than 63 '0's and '1's.
Output Specification:
For each test case, print in each line either "Yes" if the student's submission is correct, or "No" if not.
Note: The optimal solution is not necessarily generated by Huffman algorithm. Any prefix code with code length being optimal is considered correct.

算法思路: 1、最优编码 —— 总长度(WPL)最小 2. 无歧义解码 —— 前缀码:数据仅存于叶子结点
3. 没有度为1的结点 —— 满足1、 2则必然有3 注意:满足2、 3可不一定有1
这里首先判断wpl是否相同,接着判断是否存在前缀码,本算法采用简洁的处理方式,实际并没有建立哈夫曼树。
