If $$$k \leq 2n$$$,the optimal solution is to form array $$$a$$$ with $$$1$$$ and $$$2$$$. The answer is $$$c_1^ 2$$$.Any other construction will result in a num of $$$1$$$ greater than $$$c_1$$$, obviously not the optimal one.

For $$$k>2n+1$$$,the answer is always $$$0$$$.If $$$k$$$ is even,we can easily form array $$$a$$$ with $$$n$$$ even numbers.If $$$k$$$ is odd,we can set $$$a_1=5$$$ and form $$$a_2,...,a_n$$$ with $$$n-1$$$ even numbers.

For $$$k=2n+1$$$,if $$$n=2$$$,$$$a=[2,3]$$$ is optimal and the answer is $$$1$$$.Otherwise($$$n>2$$$),$$$a=[1,4,2,...,2]$$$ is optimal and the answer is $$$2$$$.

For $$$n=2$$$,if $$$s_1 \neq s_2$$$ ,output $$$-1$$$.Otherwise,output $$$s_1-'a'$$$.

For $$$n>2$$$,let's consider a classic problem:for a given array $$$a$$$,you can make $$$a_i--,a_j--$$$,determine if you can make all numbers to $$$0$$$.

Let's go back to this problem.Let's see string $$$s$$$ as the array $$$a$$$ above.Note $$$opr_i$$$ as the number of times we operate on $$$s_i$$$.We can get $$$opr_i=(a_i-'a')+26k_i$$$ since we want all $$$a_i='a'$$$.Now our task is minimize $$$\Sigma k_i$$$.

First check if the original array satisfies $$$2max(a_i) \leq \Sigma a_i$$$.If not,then greedily increase the minimum value by $$$26$$$.It can be proven that we can get $$$2max(a_i) \leq \Sigma a_i$$$ after adding the array at most two times .

The key to solving the problem lies in observing:If we group all elements in $$$a$$$ according to the index mod $$$2n$$$, then at all times, the elements of the same group will always be in the same column.

We divide the elements in $$$a$$$ into $$$2n$$$ groups and build prefix sum arrays for each group. For each query, we calculate which two groups pass through this column, and then calculate the answer with the two prefix sum arrays.

Consider calculating the contribution of each element separately.

For an element,we can observe that only elements with values less than it and indexes greater than it increase its index by $$$1$$$.

We represent these 'influence' as a sequence $$$s$$$ containing only $$$1$$$ and $$$-1$$$.At the beginning,$$$s_i=1$$$ for all $$$1\leq i \leq n$$$.We calculate the contribution of each element in ascending order of values.

Assuming we have already calculated the contribution of $$$x$$$,then we do filp $$$s_{pos_x},...,s_n$$$ (flip denotes making $$$1$$$ to $$$-1$$$ and make $$$-1$$$ to $$$1$$$) and calculate the contribution of $$$x+1$$$ using updated $$$s$$$.

We will answer the queries offline.

We will use DSU to process queries of the first type.

For each query of the first type, we will create a new node $$$H$$$ and connect both $$$u$$$ and $$$v$$$ to it.

For each query of the second type, we will add the query to the query-list of the root of the component $$$u$$$ is in.

Now we merge all the components together and we notice that now we have a tree and each query of the second type turns out to be a subtree query in our tree.

We run euler tour on the tree and now each subtree query is a range query in the euler tour array, for example it's a query on $$$[L, R]$$$, the answer to it is the answer on $$$[1, R]$$$ minus the answer on $$$[1, L - 1]$$$.

to answer these prefix queries we will use dynamic Aho-Corasick to add the strings and answer the queries.

The amortized time complexity of this solution is $$$O(N * log(N) * AlphabetSize)$$$.
