Problem I
Cuckoo Hashing
A stronger variant is Cuckoo Hashing1. The idea is to use two hash functions $h_1$ and $h_2$. Thus each string maps to two positions in the table. A query string $q$ is now handled as follows: you compute both $h_1(q)$ and $h_2(q)$, and if $T[h_1(q)]=q$, or $T[h_2(q)]=q$, you conclude that $q$ is in ${D}$. The name “Cuckoo Hashing” stems from the process of creating the table. Initially you have an empty table. You iterate over the words $d$ in ${D}$, and insert them one by one. If $T[h_1(d)]$ is free, you set $T[h_1(d)]=d$. Otherwise if $T[h_2(d)]$ is free, you set $T[h_2(d)]=d$. If both are occupied however, just like the cuckoo with other birds’ eggs, you evict the word $r$ in $T[h_1(d)]$ and set $T[h_1(d)]=d$. Next you put $r$ back into the table in its alternative place (and if that entry was already occupied you evict that word and move it to its alternative place, and so on). Of course, we may end up in an infinite loop here, in which case we need to rebuild the table with other choices of hash functions. The good news is that this will not happen with great probability even if ${D}$ contains up to $n/2$ words!
Input
On the first line of input is a single positive integer $1\leq t \leq 50$ specifying the number of test cases to follow. Each test case begins with two positive integers $1 \leq m \leq n \leq 10000$ on a line of itself, $m$ telling the number of words in the dictionary and $n$ the size of the hash table in the test case. Next follow $m$ lines of which the $i$:th describes the $i$:th word $d_ i$ in the dictionary ${D}$ by two non-negative integers $h_1(d_ i)$ and $h_2(d_ i)$ less than $n$ giving the two hash function values of the word $d_ i$. The two values may be identical.
Output
For each test case there should be exactly one line of output either containing the string “successful hashing” if it is possible to insert all words in the given order into the table, or the string “rehash necessary” if it is impossible.
