Catenyms

Description

A catenym is a pair of words separated by a period such that the last letter of the first word is the same as the last letter of the second. For example, the following are catenyms: 

dog.gopher

gopher.rat

rat.tiger

aloha.aloha

arachnid.dog

A compound catenym is a sequence of three or more words separated by periods such that each adjacent pair of words forms a catenym. For example, 

aloha.aloha.arachnid.dog.gopher.rat.tiger 

Given a dictionary of lower case words, you are to find a compound catenym that contains each of the words exactly once.

Input

The first line of standard input contains t, the number of test cases. Each test case begins with 3 <= n <= 1000 - the number of words in the dictionary. n distinct dictionary words follow; each word is a string of between 1 and 20 lowercase letters on a line by itself.

Output

For each test case, output a line giving the lexicographically least compound catenym that contains each dictionary word exactly once. Output "***" if there is no solution.

Sample Input

2
6
aloha
arachnid
dog
gopher
rat
tiger
3
oak
maple
elm

Sample Output

aloha.arachnid.dog.gopher.rat.tiger
***

　　省赛那道最小生成树的题模板套了很久一直都是错的，才感觉自己好像只是手里拿着一些自己熟悉图论的模板而已，实际上什么也不会，基础逃过不扎实。

 

　　大致题意：给定一些字符串，要求像成语接龙一般把所有字符串连接起来，如果存在多种情况，按字典序最小的那种输出。

 

　　题解：一个欧拉路的题，因为要求以字典序输出，所以得先对输入的字符串进行字典序排序排序（做到这题才知道 string 类型的可以直接排序，结果就是字典序，果然还是得多多学习）。接着 a,b,c 等字母为顶点以每个字符串为边，从首字母指向尾字母，（最开始以每个单词为顶点老是不行，在看了题解后才改过来）。建好图以后就是一个直接的欧拉回路问题了，分别先判断联通与否 以及是否能够构成欧拉图，然后便是路径输出了。
