Given n integer positive numbers ,find the minimum numbers of operations such that no two numbers have their product making a perfect square. In 1 operation you can pick any number and add or subtract one from it. All the numbers must be positive after all the operations are performed. 1<n<=100 and value of numbers are in range of 1 to 100000. Any help/discussion will be appreciated!!

I was solving this problem which seemed like a pretty much standard problem of persistent segment tree but i came across this solution which seems to use some dfs ordering of nodes and i'm unable to figure out what is going on?

Problem: Given a tree (100000 nodes) and a value in each node, and for each query you are given 2 nodes and a value V , you have to find number of nodes whose value is less than V.

This is my first time on codeforces. Thanks in advance
