There is a tree with $N$ vertices numbered $1$ through $N$.
The $i$-th edge connects Vertex $x_i$ and $y_i$.
Each vertex is painted white or black.
The initial color of Vertex $i$ is represented by a letter $c_i$.
$c_i$ $=$ W
represents the vertex is white; $c_i$ $=$ B
represents the vertex is black.
A cat will walk along this tree. More specifically, she performs one of the following in one second repeatedly:
The cat's objective is to paint all the vertices black. She may start and end performing actions at any vertex. At least how many seconds does it takes for the cat to achieve her objective?
W
or $c_i$ $=$ B
.Input is given from Standard Input in the following format:
$N$ $x_1$ $y_1$ $x_2$ $y_2$ $:$ $x_{N-1}$ $y_{N-1}$ $c_1c_2..c_N$
Print the minimum number of seconds required to achieve the objective.
