Problem Description
A tree with N nodes and N-1 edges is given. To connect or disconnect one edge, we need 1 unit of cost respectively. The nodes are labeled from 1 to N. Your job is to transform the tree to a cycle(without superfluous edges) using minimal cost. A cycle of n nodes is defined as follows: (1)a graph with n nodes and n edges (2)the degree of every node is 2 (3) each node can reach every other node with these N edges.
Input
The first line contains the number of test cases T( T<=10 ). Following lines are the scenarios of each test case. In the first line of each test case, there is a single integer N( 3<=N<=1000000 ) - the number of nodes in the tree. The following N-1 lines describe the N-1 edges of the tree. Each line has a pair of integer U, V ( 1<=U,V<=N ), describing a bidirectional edge (U, V).
Output
For each test case, please output one integer representing minimal cost to transform the tree to a cycle.
Sample Input
1 4 1 2 2 3 2 4
Sample Output
3
Hint
In the sample above, you can disconnect (2,4) and then connect (1, 4) and (3, 4), and the total cost is 3.

/*每个节点如果有两个或两个以上结点,就将它先于父节点断开,然后在与子节点断开,全部断开之后,和子节点自称一条直链,最后将所有的子链连城一条直线一个结点有sum个子结点,断开是需要sum-2次操作,连接时需要sum-2次操作,这样一个结点就会进行2*(sum-2)次操作,这时加上断开父节点,一共进行了2*(sum-2)+1次操作,构成直链之后还需要和父节点连接,这样就一共是2*(sum-1)次操作,如果这个结点是刚开始的结点,那么就不用考虑父节点,这样操操作就是2*(sum-2)次*/#include#include #include #include #include #include #include #include
