Error Curves
Josephina is a clever girl and addicted to machine learning recently. She pays much attention to a
Method called Linear discriminant analysis, which have many interesting properties.
In order to test the algorithm ' s e?ciency, she collects many datasets. What's more, each data is
Divided into and parts:training data and test data. She gets the parameters of the model on training
Data and test the model on test data.
To his surprise, she? NDS each DataSet ' s test error curve is just a parabolic curve. A Parabolic curve
Corresponds to a quadratic function. In mathematics, a quadratic function is a polynomial function of
The form f (x) = ax2 + bx + C. The quadratic would degrade to linear function if a = 0.
It's very easy to calculate the minimal error if there are only one Test error curve. However, there
is several datasets, which means Josephina would obtain many parabolic curves. Josephina wants to
Get the tuned parameters, the best performance in all datasets. So she should take the all error
Curves into account, i.e, she had to deal with many quadric functions and make a new error de?nition
To represent the total error. Now, she focuses on the following new function ' s minimal which related to
Multiple quadric functions.
The new function F (x) is de?ned as follow:
F (x) = Max (Si (x)), i = 1. . . N. The domain of x is [0,1000]. Si (x) is a quadric function.
Josephina wonders the minimum of F (x). Unfortunately, it ' s too hard for her and solve this problem.
As a super programmer, can you help her?
Input
The input contains multiple test cases. The. RST line is the number of cases T (T < 100). Each case
Begins with a number n (n≤10000). Following n lines, each line contains three integers a (0≤a≤100),
B (|b|≤5000), C (|c|≤5000), which mean the corresponding coe?cients of a quadratic function.
Output
For each test case, the output of the answer in a line. Round to 4 digits after the decimal point.
Sample Input

Test Instructions :
Given n two times curve S (x), define F (x) =max (Si (x)) to find the minimum value of f (x) on 0~1000.
