CF1534D Lost Tree
Description
This is an interactive problem.
Little Dormi was faced with an awkward problem at the carnival: he has to guess the edges of an unweighted tree of $ n $ nodes! The nodes of the tree are numbered from $ 1 $ to $ n $ .
The game master only allows him to ask one type of question:
- Little Dormi picks a node $ r $ ( $ 1 \le r \le n $ ), and the game master will reply with an array $ d_1, d_2, \ldots, d_n $ , where $ d_i $ is the length of the shortest path from node $ r $ to $ i $ , for all $ 1 \le i \le n $ .
Additionally, to make the game unfair challenge Little Dormi the game master will allow at most $ \lceil\frac{n}{2}\rceil $ questions, where $ \lceil x \rceil $ denotes the smallest integer greater than or equal to $ x $ .
Faced with the stomach-churning possibility of not being able to guess the tree, Little Dormi needs your help to devise a winning strategy!
Note that the game master creates the tree before the game starts, and does not change it during the game.

Explanation/Hint
Here is the tree from the first example.
Notice that the edges can be output in any order.
Additionally, here are the answers for querying every single node in example $ 1 $ :
- $ 1 $ : $ [0,1,2,2] $
- $ 2 $ : $ [1,0,1,1] $
- $ 3 $ : $ [2,1,0,2] $
- $ 4 $ : $ [2,1,2,0] $
Below is the tree from the second example interaction.
Lastly, here are the answers for querying every single node in example $ 2 $ :
- $ 1 $ : $ [0,4,1,3,2] $
- $ 2 $ : $ [4,0,3,1,2] $
- $ 3 $ : $ [1,3,0,2,1] $
- $ 4 $ : $ [3,1,2,0,1] $
- $ 5 $ : $ [2,2,1,1,0] $
