C. Fox and Namestime limit per test2 secondsmemory limit per test256 megabytesinputstandard inputoutputstandard output
Fox Ciel is going to publish a paper on FOCS (Foxes operated computer Systems, pronounce: "Fox"). She heard a rumor:the authors list on the paper are always sorted in the lexicographical order.
After checking some examples, she found out of that sometimes it wasn ' t true. On some papers authors ' names weren ' t sorted inlexicographical order in normal sense. But it is always true this after some modification of the order of letters in alphabet, the order of authors becomes Lexicographical!
She wants to know, if there exists a order of letters in Latin alphabet such that the names on the paper she is Submittin G is following in the lexicographical order. If So, you should find off any such order.
lexicographicalOrder is defined in following. When we comparesandT, first we find the leftmost position with differing characters: si? ≠? T I . If There is no such position (I. E.sis a prefix ofTor vice versa) the shortest string is less. Otherwise, we compare characters si and Ti According to their order in alphabet.
Input
The first line contains an integer n (1?≤? N? ≤?100): Number of names.
Each of the followingNLines contain one string namei (1?≤?| name I|? ≤?100), theI-th name. Each name contains only lowercase Latin letters. All names is different.
Output
If there exists such order of letters that the given names is sorted lexicographically, output any such order as a Permut ation of characters ' a ' – ' Z ' (i. E. First output the first letter of the modified alphabet, then the second, and so on).
Otherwise output A single word "impossible" (without quotes).

Test instructions
To find out if there is an alphabet, can satisfy the given string is from small to large given! If there is an output of this alphabet,
If not present, output impossible!
Ps:
22 Compare strings. If there are two strings with the same prefix, then the previous string is longer than the length of the last string, then it is definitely illegal! There will never be a legal alphabet!
Otherwise, the leftmost character is found and two nodes are formed, so that the previous character node points to the current character node, and then the topology is sorted.
The code is as follows:
#include <cstdio> #include <cstring> #include <iostream> #include <algorithm> #include < Queue>using namespace Std;int N;char s[147][147];int g[147][147];//Edge int in[147];//in degrees char ans[147];int k;void Toposort ()//topology sort {Queue<int >q; k = 0; for (int i = 0; i < i++) {if (!in[i]) {Q.push (i); ans[k++] = ' a ' + i; }} while (!q.empty ()) {int f = q.front (); Q.pop (); for (int i = 0; i <; i++) {if (G[f][i])//have connected side {in[i]--; if (in[i] = = 0) {Q.push (i); ans[k++] = ' a ' + i; }}}} if (K <) {printf ("impossible\n"); } else {Ans[k] = ' + '; printf ("%s\n", ans); }}int Main () {while (~SCANF ("%d", &n)) {GetChar (); memset (In,0,sizeof (in)); memset (g,0,sizeof (G)); for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {gets (s[i]); } int mark = 1; for (int i = 0; i < n-1 && mark; i++) {int len1 = strlen (S[i]); int len2 = strlen (s[i+1]); int flag = 0; for (int j = 0; J < len1 && J < Len2; J + +) {if (s[i][j]! = S[i+1][j]) {if (! g[s[i][j]-' A '][s[i+1][j]-' a ']) {g[s[i][j]-' a '][s[i+1][j]-' a '] = 1; in[s[i+1][j]-' a ']++; } flag = 1; Break }} if (!flag && len1 > Len2)//special, the prefix is the same, and the string after the previous string is longer, certainly not valid {MA RK = 0; }} if (!mark) {printf ("impossible\n"); return 0; } toposort (); } return 0;}
