The Production Manager of a dance company has been tasked with determining the cost for the seasonal
dance recital. Because of their exceptional skills, many dancers will perform in more than one routine,
but this presents a problem; each dance routine incorporates a unique costume, so between routines,
dancers must report backstage to a Wardrobe Specialist, who can change the dancer’s costume in time
to begin their next scheduled routine.
A Wardrobe Specialist does a normal change on a dancer when the dancer performs in two routines
that are not consecutive, but when a dancer is required to perform in two consecutive routines, a quick
change is necessary. A Wardrobe Specialist charges a flat rate per recital that covers all normal changes,
but charges an exorbitant amount for each quick change. The Production Manager is responsible for
keeping the show under budget, and has hired you to write a program to report the minimum number
of quick changes needed for a given recital, given that the order of the dance routines could be changed.
To describe the cast of dancers that are to perform during a recital, each dancer is assigned an
identifying uppercase letter. (Fortunately, there are never more than 26 dancers, so characters from A
to Z suffice.) To describe a full recital, a list of individual routines is given, with a string of characters
defining which dancers appear in a routine. For example, consider the following recital description:
ABC
ABEF
DEF
ABCDE
FGH
The above list describes a recital with 5 dance routines, including a total of 8 individual performers
(dancers A through H). The first routine listed includes dancers {A, B, and C}. The second routine
includes dancers {A, B, E, and F}. Notice that if these first two routines are performed in the above
order, dancers A and B will require a quick change between the routines. In fact, if these five routines
are scheduled in the order given above, a total of six quick changes are required. However, the schedule
can be rearranged as follows:
ABEF
DEF
ABC
FGH
ABCDE
In this case, only two quick changes are required (those for E and F between the first two dances).
Input
The input file contains several test cases, each of them as described below.
The first line contains a single integer R, with 2 ≤ R ≤ 10, that indicates the number of routines
in the recital. Following that will be R additional lines, each describing the dancers for one routine in
the form of a nonempty string of up to 26 non-repeating, lexicographically sorted uppercase alphabetic
characters identifying the dancers who perform in that routine. Although a dancer’s letter will not
appear more than once in a single routine, that dancer may appear in many different routines, and it
may be that two or more routines have the identical set of dancers.ACM-ICPC Live Archive: 7352 – Dance Recital

题意：大概意思就是说给你n个字符数组，让你找出匹配度(相邻两个字符串之间相同元素的个数）最小的序列。
题解：由于n<=10，离线找出任意两个字符窜之间的匹配度，暴力dfs搜索+剪枝;如果在搜索的过程中sum>output（最小值，就不用继续搜了(剪枝）;
