In the your job at Albatross Circus Management (yes, it's run by a bunch of clowns) and you have just finished writing a program Whose output is a list of names in nondescending order by length (so, each name was at least as long as the one Precedi ng it). However, your boss does not like the the-the-the-the-the--the output looks, and instead wants the output to appear more symmetric, with the Shorter strings at the top and bottom and the longer strings in the middle. The names belongs on opposite ends of the list, and the first name in the pair are always in the Top part of the list. In the first example set below, Bo and Pat is the first pair, Jean and Kevin the second pair, etc.
Input
The input consists of one or more sets of strings, followed to a final line containing only the value 0. Each set starts with a line containing an integer, n, which are the number of strings in the set, followed by N strings, one per line, sorted in nondescending order by length. None of the strings contain spaces. There is at least one and no more than strings per set. Each string is at the most characters long.
Output
For each input set print "Set n" on a line, where n starts at 1, followed by the output set as shown in the sample output.
| Example Input: |
Example output: |
7 Bo Pat Jean Kevin Claude William Marybeth 6 Jim Ben Zoe Joey Frederick Annabelle 5 John Bill Fran Stan Cece 0
|
SET 1 Bo Jean Claude Marybeth William Kevin Pat SET 2 Jim Zoe Frederick Annabelle Joey Ben SET 3 John Fran Cece Stan Bill |
This problem can be entered by the name is an odd number or even a number of separate processing, note that after reading the number of people to remove the line break.
