IOI '08 - Cairo, Egypt
You need to print words on a movable type printer. Movable type
printers are those old printers that require you to place small metal
pieces (each containing a letter) in order to form words. A piece of
paper is then pressed against them to print the word. The printer you
have allows you to do any of the following operations:
- Add a letter to the end of the word currently in the printer.
- Remove the last letter from the end of the word currently in the printer. You are only allowed to do this if there is at least one letter currently in the printer.
- Print the word currently in the printer.
Initially, the printer is empty; it contains no metal pieces with letters. At the end of printing, you are allowed to leave some letters in the printer. Also, you are allowed to print the words in any order you like.
As every operation requires time, you want to minimize the total number of operations.
You must write a program that, given the words you want to print,
finds the minimum number of operations needed to print all the words in
any order, and outputs one such sequence of operations.
Input Specification
Your program must read from the standard input the following data:
- Line 1 contains the integer
, the number of words you need to print.
- Each of the next
lines contains a word. Each word consists of lowercase letters (
a
-z
) only and has length between 1 and 20, inclusive.
All words will be distinct.
Output Specification
Your program must write to the standard output the following data:
- Line 1 must contain an integer
that represents the minimum number of operations required to print the
words.
- Each of the next
lines must contain one character each. These characters describe the sequence of operations done. Each operation must be described as follows:
- Adding a letter is represented by the letter itself in lowercase
- Removing the last letter is represented by the character
-
(minus, ASCII code 45) - Printing the current word is represented by the character
P
(uppercase letter P)
