DIFFICULTY:

CAKEWALK

PREREQUISITES:

None

PROBLEM:

You are given a string of length N consisting of 0's,1's and 2's, which represents the witcher’s past contracts (0\rightarrow No help; 1\rightarrow Yennefer; 2\rightarrow Triss). For the next contract, the witcher will choose a mage who has helped him in at least N/2 previous contracts (if both mages satisfy the condition, then he will choose Yennefer). If none satisfies the condition, he will take up the contract alone. You have to tell who will the witcher choose to help him with the next contract.

QUICK EXPLANATION:

I don’t think it’s possible to explain any shorter than the explanation below. So straight away head to the following section.

EXPLANATION:

Count the number of 1's and 2's. Let them be x and y respectively. If x \geq N/2, print Yennefer of Vengerberg. Else if, y \geq N/2, print Triss Merigold. If none of the above conditions are true, print Lone Wolf.
