[Solution] Mario and the Broken String CodeChef Solution



Problem

Mario was going to gift Princess Peach a string S of even length N.

Mario was clumsy and thus, broke the string in the middle. He now has two strings A and B such that A = S[1, \frac{N}{2}] and B = S[\frac{N}{2} + 1, N].

Mario is not sure about the order in which he should join the strings A and B to get the string S. Thus, he joins the strings in any random order. Find whether it is guaranteed that Mario will get the same string S if he joins the strings A and B in any order.

Note that S[L, R] denotes a substring of string S starting at index L and having a length (R - L + 1).

Input Format

  • The first line of input will contain a single integer T, denoting the number of test cases.
  • Each test case consists of two lines of input:
    • The first line of each test case contains N - the length of the initial string S.
    • The second line contains the string S.

Output Format

For each test case, print YES if it is guaranteed that Mario will get the same string S irrespective of the order in which he joins the strings A and B and NO otherwise.

You may print each character of the string in uppercase or lowercase (for example, the strings YESyEsyes, and yeS will all be treated as identical).

Explanation:

Test case 1: On breaking, the string S gives A = abc and B = abc. Thus, joining it in either way (AB or BA), would give the same string S.

Test case 2: On breaking, the string S gives A = abc and B = def. Joining it as BA would give the string defabc which is not equal to string S.

Test case 3: On breaking, the string S gives A = aa and B = aa. Thus, joining it in either way (AB or BA), would give the same string S.

Test case 4: On breaking, the string S gives A = ba and B = ab. Joining it as BA would give the string abba which is not equal to string S.
