In cf java, it seems that the public static class cannot be opened again, and the commented out class cannot be used. It seems like a BUG ???

A boy named Vasya wants to play an old Russian solitaire called "Accordion". In this solitaire, the player must observe the following rules:

• A deckNCards is carefully shuffled, then allNCards are put on the table in a line from left to right;
• Before each move the table has several piles of cards lying in a line (initially there areNPiles, each pile has one card). Let's number the piles from left to right, from 1X. During one move, a player can take the whole pile with the maximum numberX(That is the rightmost of remaining) and put it on the top of pileX? -? 1 (if it exists) or on the top of pileX? -? 3 (if it exists). The player can put one pile on top of another one only if the piles 'top cards have the same suits or values. Please note that if pileXGoes on top of pileY, Then the top card of pileXBecomes the top card of the resulting pile. Also note that each move decreases the total number of piles by 1;
• The solitaire is considered completed if all cards are in the same pile.

  Vasya has already shuffled the cards and put them on the table, help him understand whether completing this solitaire is possible or not.

  Input

  The first input line contains a single integerN(1? ≤?N? ≤? 52)-the number of cards in Vasya's deck. The next line containsNSpace-separated stringsC1 ,?C2 ,?...,?CN, Where stringCIDescribesI-Th card on the table. Each stringCIConsists of exactly two characters, the first one represents the card's value, the second one represents its suit. Cards on the table are numbered from left to right.

  A card's value is specified by one of these characters: "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7 ", "8", "9", "T", "J", "Q", "K", "". A card's suit is specified by one of these characters: "s", "D", "H", "C ".

  It is not guaranteed that the deck has all possible cards. Also, the cards in Vasya's deck can repeat.

  Output

  On a single line print the answer to the problem: string "YES" (without the quotes) if completing the solitaire is possible, string "NO" (without the quotes) otherwise.

  23S 2C

  Output

  NO

  Note

  In the first sample you can act like that:

  • Put the 4-th pile on the 1-st one;
  • Put the 3-rd pile on the 2-nd one;
  • Put the 2-nd pile on the 1-st one.

    In the second sample there is no way to complete the solitaire.
