On a social network consisting of m users and some friendships between users, two users can communicate with each other if they know a common language.

You are given an integer n, an array languages, and an array friendships where:

You can choose one language and teach it to some users so that all friends can communicate with each other. Return the minimum number of users you need to teach.

Example 1

Input: n = 2, languages = [[1],[2],[1,2]], friendships = [[1,2],[1,3],[2,3]]

Output: 1

Explanation: You can either teach user 1 the second language or user 2 the first language.

Example 2

Input: n = 3, languages = [[2],[1,3],[1,2],[3]], friendships = [[1,4],[1,2],[3,4],[2,3]]

Output: 2

Explanation: Teach the third language to users 1 and 3, yielding two users to teach.

Constraints

  • 2 <= n <= 500
  • languages.length == m
  • 1 <= m <= 500
  • 1 <= languages[i].length <= n
  • 1 <= languages[i][j] <= n
  • 1 <= u​​​​​​i < v​​​​​​i <= languages.length
  • 1 <= friendships.length <= 500
  • All tuples (u​​​​​i, v​​​​​​i) are unique
  • languages[i] contains only unique values
