standard output

You are given two arrays $$$a$$$ and $$$b$$$ of lengths $$$n$$$ and $$$m$$$, respectively. All $$$n + m$$$ integers in these arrays are distinct.

You can perform the following operation on $$$a$$$ any number of times (possibly, zero):

After performing all operations, you may arrange the elements of $$$a$$$ in any order.

Determine whether it is possible to make $$$a$$$ equal to $$$b$$$.

Input

Each test contains multiple test cases. The first line contains the number of test cases $$$t$$$ ($$$1 \\le t \\le 10^4$$$). The description of the test cases follows.

The first line of each test case contains two integers $$$n$$$ and $$$m$$$ ($$$1 \\le n, m \\le 2 \\cdot 10^5$$$) — the lengths of the arrays $$$a$$$ and $$$b$$$.

The second line contains $$$n$$$ integers $$$a_1, a_2, \\ldots, a_n$$$ ($$$1 \\le a_i \\le 10^9$$$).

The third line contains $$$m$$$ integers $$$b_1, b_2, \\ldots, b_m$$$ ($$$1 \\le b_i \\le 10^9$$$).

It is guaranteed that all $$$n + m$$$ integers in the arrays $$$a$$$ and $$$b$$$ are distinct.

It is guaranteed that the sum of $$$n$$$ over all test cases does not exceed $$$2 \\cdot 10^5$$$.

It is guaranteed that the sum of $$$m$$$ over all test cases does not exceed $$$2 \\cdot 10^5$$$.

Output

For each test case, print \"YES\" if it is possible to make $$$a$$$ equal to $$$b$$$, and \"NO\" otherwise.

You can output the answer in any case (upper or lower). For example, the strings \"yEs\", \"yes\", \"Yes\", and \"YES\" will be recognized as positive responses.

In the second test case, it can be shown that no sequence of operations can make $$$a$$$ equal to $$$b$$$.

In the third test case, choose $$$1$$$ and $$$5$$$, delete them, and insert $$$4$$$. Then, choose $$$3$$$ and $$$7$$$, delete them, and insert $$$6$$$.

In the sixth test case, first choose $$$1$$$ and $$$10$$$, delete them, and insert $$$5$$$. Next, choose $$$6$$$ and $$$100$$$, delete them, and insert $$$90$$$. Finally, choose $$$4$$$ and $$$5$$$, delete them, and insert $$$5$$$.

In the seventh test case, for the pairs $$$(1,4)$$$, $$$(10,20)$$$, and $$$(30,40)$$$, delete both elements and insert $$$3$$$, $$$15$$$, and $$$35$$$, respectively.

In the ninth test case, delete the pairs $$$(1,3)$$$, $$$(8,18)$$$, and $$$(25,30)$$$ and insert $$$2$$$, $$$15$$$, and $$$28$$$, respectively. Then, delete $$$12$$$ and $$$15$$$ and insert $$$15$$$.

In the tenth test case, first choose $$$1$$$ and $$$2$$$, delete them, and insert $$$2$$$. Then, choose $$$2$$$ and $$$3$$$, delete them, and insert $$$3$$$. Finally, choose $$$3$$$ and $$$5$$$, delete them, and insert $$$4$$$.

\n\n\n\nSource lookup status:\n\n- Tutorial (en): https://codeforces.com/blog/entry/155640 loaded (200 OK; title: \"Codeforces Round 1113 (Div. 2) Editorial - Codeforces\"; mentions 2248B)\n\n\nGenerate:\n1. Five progressive hints, from a gentle nudge to the key insight.\n2. A self-contained editorial that teaches the solution clearly, including the key insight, algorithm, correctness argument, complexity, and necessary implementation details. Explain non-obvious steps without padding or a discovery-process transcript.\n3. A complete C++26 solution that gets AC on Codeforces.\n\nFormatting & Style Rules:\n- Hints and editorial: valid Markdown with LaTeX as needed (e.g., $dp[i]$, $$\\sum_{i=1}^{n} a_i$$).\n- Hints and editorial must read like Nudge's own explanation. No research notes, source notes, citations, Markdown links, URLs, or references to editorials/submissions/posts.\n- Solution: raw C++ only, no Markdown fences.\n- Keep C++ short, clean, standard, and single-file. Comments are fine when they clarify the idea.\n\nOutput strictness:\n- Return JSON matching the provided schema exactly.\n- Never include NUL (U+0000) characters in any field. Use literal $ or $$ for math delimiters, never control characters.\n- If the problem is solvable, return `status: \"success\"`, `reason: null`, and fill in `hints`, `editorial`, and `solution`.\n- Return `status: \"unsolvable\"`, a short `reason`, and set `hints`, `editorial`, and `solution` to null only when the supplied statement is fundamentally incomplete, contradictory, or dependent on an inaccessible resource needed to define the task. Missing research, high rating, uncertainty, or \"can't guarantee AC\" is not a reason to return unsolvable.\n- If you return `status: \"unsolvable\"`, the `reason` is shown directly to users. Be concrete: say what exact statement/resource blocker stopped you, and include relevant source lookup status if it mattered (for example: official tutorial missing, Codeforces returned 403/Cloudflare challenge, tutorial page 404, accepted submissions unavailable).\n- Each hint must be an object with `order` (1 through 5) and `content` (the Markdown hint text), not a plain string. The `content` must contain just the hint text, with no \"Hint 1:\" or subtitles. The UI adds those automatically.\n- Do not start the editorial with an \"# Editorial\" heading. The UI already adds that section. Feel free to add other headers as needed though.\n- Use styling in the editorial if needed! Just that first header is no good but any subheaders or bolding or whatever is good!\n\nFor the C++ solution, you MUST use this template and work around it:\n\n```cpp\n#include \nusing namespace std;\n\nusing ll = long long;\n\nvoid setIO() {\n ios::sync_with_stdio(false);\n cin.tie(nullptr);\n}\n\nint main() {\n setIO();\n}\n```", "id": "prt_0b252bb89001PLP9F9jicwHXn1", "sessionID": "ses_f4dad4490ffe6LWphO5LmPcMve", "messageID": "msg_0b252bb88001QX3pOw3IyDH8zo" } ] }, { "info": { "parentID": "msg_0b252bb88001QX3pOw3IyDH8zo", "role": "assistant", "mode": "nudge-generation", "agent": "nudge-generation", "variant": "low", "path": { "cwd": "/private/var/folders/t7/b_w5m78j2mbb1ct051p9sv500000gn/T/nudge-opencode-generation-PnmoaD", "root": "/" }, "cost": 0, "tokens": { "total": 9951, "input": 9919, "output": 32, "reasoning": 0, "cache": { "write": 0, "read": 0 } }, "modelID": "gpt-6-astra", "providerID": "openai", "time": { "created": 1789698161689, "completed": 1789698168332 }, "finish": "tool-calls", "id": "msg_0b252bc190012DN0wstZVsGU8f", "sessionID": "ses_f4dad4490ffe6LWphO5LmPcMve" }, "parts": [ { "type": "step-start", "id": "prt_0b252c5f7001z76vxQiOj7L7Xa", "sessionID": "ses_f4dad4490ffe6LWphO5LmPcMve", "messageID": "msg_0b252bc190012DN0wstZVsGU8f" }, { "type": "tool", "tool": "webfetch", "callID": "call_DRULgWbkJe0Zd9L7LCoFQD2P", "state": { "status": "completed", "input": { "url": "https://codeforces.com/blog/entry/155640", "format": "markdown" }, "output": "---\nimage: https://codeforces.com/codeforces.org/s/64117/images/codeforces-telegram-square-1024x1024.png\ntitle: Codeforces Round 1113 (Div. 2) Editorial - Codeforces\ndescription: Codeforces.

\"Codeforces Round 1113 (Div. 2)\")\n\n**Hint1**\n\nAlice deletes a `0`, Bob deletes a `1`. Which occurrence should each of them choose?\n\n**Hint2**\n\nDeleting a `0` makes the string lexicographically larger. Does the position of that `0` matter?\n\n**Hint3**\n\nAfter Alice's move, Bob sees one string and deletes a `1`. What is his best move?\n\n**Solution**\n\nDeleting a `0` at an earlier position is always better for Alice. Indeed, compare deleting the `0`s at positions $$$i \\\\lt j$$$: the two results agree before position $$$i$$$, and at position $$$i$$$ the first result has `1` while the second still has `0`. So Alice deletes the **first** `0`.\n\nAfter that, Bob wants to minimize the string. By the symmetric argument he deletes the **first** `1` of the remaining string, which is the first `1` of the original string, since deleting a `0` never changes the order of the `1`s.\n\nHence the answer is the original string with its first `0` and its first `1` removed.\n\n**Complexity:** $$$O(n)$$$ per test case.\n\n**Code**\n\n```\n#include \n#include \nconst int N = 105;\nchar str[N];\nvoid solve() {\n scanf(\"%s\", str + 1);\n int n = strlen(str + 1);\n bool c0 = 0, c1 = 0;\n for (int i = 1; i <= n; i++) {\n if (!c0 && str[i] == '0') {\n c0 = true;\n continue;\n }\n if (!c1 && str[i] == '1') {\n c1 = true;\n continue;\n }\n putchar(str[i]);\n }\n puts(\"\");\n}\nint main() {\n int t = 0;\n scanf(\"%d\", &t);\n while (t--) solve();\n return 0;\n}\n\n```\n\n**Code (Brute Force)**\n\n```\n#include\nusing namespace std;\n\n#define ll long long\n#define nline \"\\n\"\n#define sz(x) (int)x.size()\n\nvoid solve(){\n\tstring s; cin>>s;\n\tstring ans;\n\tfor(int i=0;i>test_cases;\n\twhile(test_cases--){\n\t\tsolve();\n\t}\n}\n\n```\n\n[2248B - Merge to Match](https://codeforces.com/contest/2248/problem/B \"Codeforces Round 1113 (Div. 2)\")\n\n**Hint1**\n\nSort both arrays. Each operation reduces the number of elements by exactly one.\n\n**Hint2**\n\nAll values are distinct, so no final element can be an untouched original element. What lower bound on $$$n$$$ does this give?\n\n**Hint3**\n\nAfter sorting, in which interval of $$$a$$$ must the $$$i$$$-th smallest value $$$b\\_i$$$ lie?\n\n**Solution**\n\nSort both arrays. An operation merges two elements $$$x \\\\le y$$$ into any $$$z \\\\in \\[x,y\\]$$$, so think of each final element as the merge of a group of original elements whose min/max bracket its value.\n\n**Necessity.**\n\n* **$$$n \\\\ge 2m$$$.** The values in $$$b$$$ are distinct from those in $$$a$$$, so a final element consisting of a single original element is impossible. Every final element needs at least two originals.\n* **$$$a\\_i \\\\le b\\_i \\\\le a\\_{n-m+i}$$$.** The $$$i$$$ smallest final values are produced by $$$i$$$ groups containing at least $$$i$$$ original elements, all $$$\\\\le b\\_i$$$. Only $$$i-1$$$ original elements are smaller than $$$a\\_i$$$, so $$$b\\_i \\\\ge a\\_i$$$. The symmetric argument on the largest values gives $$$b\\_i \\\\le a\\_{n-m+i}$$$.\n\n**Sufficiency.** If the conditions hold, pair $$$a\\_i$$$ with $$$a\\_{n-m+i}$$$ for each $$$i$$$ (the pairs are disjoint since $$$n \\\\ge 2m$$$) and merge each pair into $$$b\\_i$$$. The remaining middle elements can be attached to any group one by one: merging the current group value $$$b\\_1$$$ with an extra element $$$e$$$ yields $$$b\\_1$$$ again, because $$$b\\_1$$$ lies between them.\n\n**Complexity:** $$$O((n+m)\\\\log(n+m))$$$ per test case.\n\n**Code**\n\n```\nusing namespace std;\n\nint main() {\n\tint T;\n\tscanf(\"%d\", &T);\n\tfor (int _ = 0; _ < T; ++_) {\n\t\tint n, m;\n\t\tscanf(\"%d %d\", &n, &m);\n\t\tvector a(n), b(m);\n\t\tfor (int &x : a) {\n\t\t scanf(\"%d\", &x);\n\t\t}\n\t\tfor (int &x : b) {\n\t\t\tscanf(\"%d\", &x);\n\t\t}\n\t\tsort(a.begin(), a.end());\n\t\tsort(b.begin(), b.end());\n\n\t\tif (n < 2 * m) {\n\t\t\tputs(\"NO\");\n\t\t\tcontinue;\n\t\t}\n\n\t\tint i = 0;\n\t\twhile (i < m && a[i] < b[i] && b[i] < a[n - m + i]) ++i;\n\t\tputs(i < m ? \"no\" : \"Yes\");\n\t}\n\treturn 0;\n}\n\n```\n\n[2248C - Maximize the Score](https://codeforces.com/contest/2248/problem/C \"Codeforces Round 1113 (Div. 2)\")\n\n**Hint1**\n\nIf a value is chosen when some elements between its two occurrences were already deleted, move its deletion earlier. When is this never worse? Think about $$$(a+b)^2 \\\\ge a^2 + b^2$$$.\n\n**Hint2**\n\nConclude that the process is equivalent to partitioning the array into disjoint blocks: each block is either a single position, or the whole interval between two equal values at its ends.\n\n**Hint3**\n\nDP over the prefix. Consider the block containing the last position.\n\n**Solution**\n\nCall an operation **full** if it deletes the entire original interval between the two occurrences of the chosen value.\n\n**Lemma.** There is an optimal strategy in which every operation is full.\n\nSuppose a value is chosen with current span $$$p \\\\dots q$$$, while an interval $$$J$$$ strictly inside its original span was deleted earlier. Swap the two deletions: the value now covers the whole original interval. If the two original lengths are $$$A$$$ and $$$B$$$ ($$$A \\\\ge B$$$), the score changes from at most $$$(A-B)^2 + B^2$$$ to $$$A^2$$$, and $$$(A-B)^2 + B^2 \\\\le A^2$$$. So the total never decreases, and repeating this exchange makes every operation full.\n\nNow the deleted intervals are disjoint, and the whole process is exactly: partition the array into blocks, each being a single position or the interval between the two equal values at its ends, and collect $$$\\\\sum (\\\\text{block length})^2$$$.\n\nLet $$$dp\\[i\\]$$$ be the best score for the prefix $$$a\\_1 \\\\dots a\\_i$$$. The block containing position $$$i$$$ is either the singleton $$${i}$$$, or the interval $$$\\[l,i\\]$$$ where $$$l$$$ is the first occurrence of $$$a\\_i$$$:\n\n$$$ dp\\[i\\] = \\\\max\\\\big(dp\\[i-1\\] + 1,\\\\; dp\\[l-1\\] + (i-l+1)^2\\\\big). $$$\n\nThe singleton option never overestimates: if the mate of $$$a\\_i$$$ is still present in the optimal strategy of the prefix, deleting $$$\\[l,i\\]$$$ instead is at least as good, since $$$(i-l+1)^2 \\\\ge (i-l)^2 + 1$$$.\n\nThe answer is $$$dp\\[2n\\]$$$.\n\n**Complexity:** $$$O(n)$$$ per test case.\n\n**Code**\n\n```\n#include \nusing namespace std;\n\nint main() {\n\tint T;\n\tscanf(\"%d\", &T);\n\tfor (int _ = 0; _ < T; ++_) {\n\t\tint n;\n\t\tscanf(\"%d\", &n);\n\t\tvector a(2 * n);\n\t\tfor (int &x : a) {\n\t\t\tscanf(\"%d\", &x);\n\t\t}\n\n\t\tvector lp(2 * n, -1);\n\t\tvector occ(n, -1);\n\t\tfor (int i = 0; i < 2 * n; ++i) {\n\t\t\tif (occ[a[i] - 1] != -1) {\n\t\t\t\tlp[i] = occ[a[i] - 1];\n\t\t\t} else {\n\t\t\t\tocc[a[i] - 1] = i;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t}\n\n\t\tvector dp(2 * n);\n\t\tdp[0] = 1;\n\t\tfor (int i = 1; i < 2 * n; ++i) {\n\t\t\tdp[i] = dp[i - 1] + 1;\n\t\t\tif (lp[i] != -1) {\n\t\t\t\tdp[i] = max(dp[i], (lp[i] == 0 ? 0 : dp[lp[i] - 1]) + 1LL * (i - lp[i] + 1) * (i - lp[i] + 1));\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t}\n\t\tprintf(\"%lld\\n\", dp[2 * n - 1]);\n\t}\n}\n\n```\n\n[2248D - Good Pair Queries](https://codeforces.com/contest/2248/problem/D \"Codeforces Round 1113 (Div. 2)\")\n\n**Hint1**\n\nClassify each position by the pair $$$(s\\_i, t\\_i)$$$ and count the four types: $$$(0,0)$$$, $$$(0,1)$$$, $$$(1,0)$$$, $$$(1,1)$$$.\n\n**Hint2**\n\nFind a quantity that only decreases during the game, and equals $$$0$$$ at the end.\n\n**Hint3**\n\nWhich pairs of columns can be deleted together in one operation? When can all columns be paired up?\n\n**Solution**\n\nFor a substring pair let $$$x=N(0,1)$$$, $$$y=N(1,0)$$$, $$$u=N(0,0)$$$, $$$v=N(1,1)$$$, where $$$N(0,1)$$$ denotes the number occurrences of $$$(0,1)$$$.\n\n**Claim.** The pair is good iff $$$|x-y| \\\\le u+v$$$.\n\n**Necessity**: Take any allowed operation. Let the deleted columns have counts $$$u\\_0, v\\_0, x\\_0, y\\_0$$$ and total $$$k = u\\_0+v\\_0+x\\_0+y\\_0$$$. \n\n**Case $$$c=0$$$:** \nIn the deleted subsequence of $$$s$$$, character $$$0$$$ appears $$$u\\_0+x\\_0$$$ times; in $$$t$$$ it appears $$$u\\_0+y\\_0$$$ times. \nMode condition: \n\n$$$ u\\_0+x\\_0 \\\\ge \\\\lceil k/2 \\\\rceil,\\\\qquad u\\_0+y\\_0 \\\\ge \\\\lceil k/2 \\\\rceil . $$$\n\nAdding them: $$$2u\\_0 + x\\_0 + y\\_0 \\\\ge k = u\\_0+v\\_0+x\\_0+y\\_0$$$ $$$\\\\Rightarrow$$$ $$$u\\_0 \\\\ge v\\_0$$$. \nSubtracting one from the other gives $$$|x\\_0 - y\\_0| \\\\le u\\_0 - v\\_0 \\\\le u\\_0 + v\\_0$$$. \n\n**Case $$$c=1$$$:** similarly $$$v\\_0 \\\\ge u\\_0$$$ and $$$|x\\_0 - y\\_0| \\\\le v\\_0 - u\\_0 \\\\le u\\_0 + v\\_0$$$. \n\nThus **every operation** satisfies $$$|x\\_0 - y\\_0| \\\\le u\\_0+v\\_0$$$.\n\nNow define the potential $$$\\\\Phi = |x-y| - (u+v)$$$. \nAfter one operation the change is \n\n$$$ \\\\Phi' - \\\\Phi = \\\\bigl(|x-x\\_0 - (y-y\\_0)| - |x-y|\\\\bigr) + (u\\_0+v\\_0). $$$\n\nBy the triangle inequality, $$$|x-y| - |(x-y)-(x\\_0-y\\_0)| \\\\le |x\\_0-y\\_0|$$$. \nTherefore \n\n$$$ \\\\Phi' - \\\\Phi = (u\\_0+v\\_0) - \\\\bigl(|x-y| - |(x-y)-(x\\_0-y\\_0)|\\\\bigr) \\\\ge u\\_0+v\\_0 - |x\\_0-y\\_0| \\\\ge 0\\. $$$\n\nSo $$$\\\\Phi$$$ never decreases. \nThe empty pair has $$$\\\\Phi = 0$$$. Hence initially $$$\\\\Phi \\\\le 0$$$, i.e. $$$|x-y| \\\\le u+v$$$.\n\n**Sufficiency**: We can empty the strings by repeatedly deleting columns in groups of size 1 or 2.\n\nA single column can be deleted alone **iff** it is pure: $$$(0,0)$$$ (mode $$$0$$$) or $$$(1,1)$$$ (mode $$$1$$$). Two columns can be deleted together **iff** they are **not** two identical mixed columns:\n\n* $$$(0,0)$$$ pairs with anything.\n* $$$(1,1)$$$ pairs with anything.\n* $$$(0,1)$$$ pairs with $$$(1,0)$$$.\n\nSo we can pair $$$\\\\min(x,y)$$$ copies of $$$(0,1)$$$ with $$$(1,0)$$$, and the remaining $$$|x-y|$$$ mixed columns (all of the same type) are paired with pure columns $$$(0,0)$$$ or $$$(1,1)$$$. This is possible exactly because $$$u+v \\\\ge |x-y|$$$.\n\nThe leftover $$$u+v-|x-y|$$$ pure columns are paired arbitrarily among themselves. If the total number of columns is odd, exactly one pure column remains and can be deleted alone.\n\nAll these pairs / singletons are valid operations. After their deletion the strings become empty, so the pair is good.\n\nPrecompute prefix sums for the four column types. For a query $$$\\[l,r\\]$$$ obtain the four counts $$$u,v,x,y$$$ in constant time.

The achievable spends form a knapsack.\n\n**Hint2**\n\nBelow the smallest spend that yields a net increase, the balance only decreases; reachability is a DP on a DAG.\n\n**Hint3**\n\nAbove that threshold the balance can grow without bound, and every transaction changes it by a multiple of a single gcd. What determines whether $$$0$$$ is reachable?\n\n**Hint4**\n\nIf the smallest threshold does not exceed the cheapest product, every purchase is discounted and no positive balance can ever become $$$0$$$.\n\n**Solution**\n\nLet $$$V = \\\\max(s, a\\_m)$$$ and compute the set $$$C$$$ of spend amounts achievable up to $$$V$$$ with an unbounded knapsack over the prices (a bitset, $$$O(V^2/64)$$$). The rebate for a spend $$$x$$$ is $$$r(x) = \\\\max{b\\_j : a\\_j \\\\le x}$$$, obtained by a prefix maximum.\n\nFor every achievable $$$x$$$:\n\n* if $$$r(x) \\\\lt x$$$, the net decrease is $$$d = x - r(x)$$$; keep $$$L\\[d\\] = \\\\min{x}$$$ — the cheapest way to lose exactly $$$d$$$;\n* if $$$r(x) \\\\gt x$$$, the purchase increases the balance; let $$$\\\\text{mnip}$$$ be the smallest such spend.\n\n**Below $$$\\\\text{mnip}$$$.** Every affordable transaction has $$$r(x) \\\\le x$$$, so the balance only decreases. Define $$$f\\[0\\] = 1$$$ and\n\n$$$ f\\[i\\] = \\\\bigvee\\_{d \\\\le i} \\\\big(L\\[d\\] \\\\le i \\\\text{ and } f\\[i-d\\]\\\\big). $$$\n\nThis is a DAG (all transitions go down); using the minimum spend for each decrease $$$d$$$ is optimal because a cheaper transaction is only more flexible. A shifted bitset computes all $$$f\\[i\\]$$$ in $$$O(V^2/64)$$$.\n\n**At or above $$$\\\\text{mnip}$$$.** A net-increasing purchase is affordable and can be repeated, so the balance can be made arbitrarily large. Every transaction changes the balance by a multiple of\n\n$$$ g = \\\\gcd(I,\\\\ D,\\\\ c\\_1, \\\\dots, c\\_n,\\\\ b\\_m), $$$\n\nso the residue of the balance modulo $$$g$$$ is invariant, and from a sufficiently large balance every value in the same residue class is reachable (Frobenius). Any path to $$$0$$$ must enter the decreasing region: for the last purchase, $$$b - x + r(x) = 0$$$ with $$$x \\\\le b$$$ forces $$$r(x) = 0$$$ and $$$x = b \\\\lt a\\_1$$$. Therefore a balance $$$i \\\\ge \\\\text{mnip}$$$ can reach $$$0$$$ iff $$$i \\\\equiv 0 \\\\pmod g$$$ and some positive balance below $$$\\\\text{mnip}$$$ is reachable.\n\nThe second condition is automatic when $$$a\\_1 \\\\gt c\\_{\\\\min}$$$: the spend $$$c\\_{\\\\min}$$$ (the cheapest product) has rebate $$$0$$$, so $$$f\\[c\\_{\\\\min}\\] = 1$$$ and $$$c\\_{\\\\min} \\\\lt \\\\text{mnip}$$$. Conversely, if $$$a\\_1 \\\\le c\\_{\\\\min}$$$, every purchase has $$$r(x) \\\\ge b\\_1 \\\\ge 1$$$, so a purchase of cost $$$x \\\\le h$$$ leaves balance $$$h - x + r(x) \\\\gt 0$$$ — no positive balance can ever become $$$0$$$.\n\nHere $$$I$$$ and $$$D$$$ are the net increases/decreases found above, and the costs and $$$b\\_m$$$ stand in for the spends beyond $$$V$$$: for $$$x \\\\ge a\\_m$$$ the net change is $$$x - b\\_m$$$, and since all achievable spends are multiples of $$$\\\\gcd(c\\_1,\\\\dots,c\\_n)$$$, the whole tail contributes exactly $$$\\\\gcd(c\\_1,\\\\dots,c\\_n, b\\_m)$$$.\n\n**Complexity:** $$$O(V^2/64)$$$ time and $$$O(V)$$$ memory, with $$$V = \\\\max(s, a\\_m) \\\\le 125\\\\,000$$$.\n\n**Code**\n\n```\n#include \nusing namespace std;\n\nconst int maxV = 125000 + 5;\n\nint Lgcd(const vector &v) {\n\treturn accumulate(v.begin(), v.end(), 0, [](int a, int b) { return gcd(a, b); });\n}\n\nint main() {\n\tint n, m, s;\n\tscanf(\"%d %d %d\", &n, &m, &s);\n\tvector c(n);\n\tvector> ab(m);\n\tfor (auto &x : c)\n\t\tscanf(\"%d\", &x);\n\tfor (auto &[a, b] : ab)\n\t\tscanf(\"%d %d\", &a, &b);\n\tab.insert(ab.begin(), make_pair(0, 0));\n\tm += 1;\n\n\tbitset p;\n\tp.set(0);\n\tfor (int x : c)\n\t\tp.set(x);\n\n\tconst int V = max(s, ab.back().first);\n\tfor (int i = 1; i <= V; ++i) {\n\t\tif (p[i])\n\t\t\tp |= (p << i);\n\t}\n\n\tvector l(V + 1, s + 1);\n\tl[0] = 0;\n\tint mnip = s + 1;\n\tvector I, D;\n\tfor (int i = 1, abp = 0; i <= V; ++i) {\n\t\tif (!p[i])\n\t\t\tcontinue;\n\t\twhile (abp + 1 < m && ab[abp + 1].first <= i)\n\t\t\tabp += 1;\n\n\t\tauto [a, b] = ab[abp];\n\t\tif (b <= i) {\n\t\t\tl[i - b] = min(l[i - b], i);\n\t\t\tD.push_back(i - b);\n\t\t} else {\n\t\t\tI.push_back(b - i);\n\t\t\tmnip = min(mnip, i);\n\t\t}\n\t}\n\n\tvector> lv;\n\tfor (int i = 1; i <= V; ++i) {\n\t\tif (l[i] <= s)\n\t\t\tlv.emplace_back(l[i], i);\n\t}\n\tconst int ln = lv.size();\n\n\tsort(lv.begin(), lv.end());\n\tsort(c.begin(), c.end());\n\tsort(I.begin(), I.end());\n\tsort(D.begin(), D.end());\n\n\tbitset f, L;\n\tf.set(0);\n\tfor (int i = 1, lp = 0; i < mnip; ++i) {\n\t\twhile (lp < ln && lv[lp].first <= i) {\n\t\t\tL.set(maxV - lv[lp].second);\n\t\t\tlp += 1;\n\t\t}\n\n\t\tf[i] = ((f & (L >> (maxV - i)))._Find_first() < V);\n\t}\n\n\tint Ig = Lgcd(I), Dg = Lgcd(D), cg = Lgcd(c);\n\tint ugcd = gcd(gcd(Ig, Dg), gcd(cg, ab.back().second));\n\n\tfor (int i = 1; i < mnip; ++i)\n\t\tputs(f[i] ? \"YES\" : \"NO\");\n\tfor (int i = mnip; i <= s; ++i)\n\t\tputs((i % ugcd == 0 && ab[1].first > c[0]) ? \"YES\" : \"NO\");\n\treturn 0;\n}\n\n```\n\nI promise I'll improve this soon.
