HackerEarth Rhezo and Destructive Mind problem solution

YASH PAL, 31 July 202417 February 2026

In this HackerEarth Rhezo and Destructive Mind problem solution Rhezo has bought a graph with N nodes and M edges. He has a destructive mind and often deletes some nodes(and of course its edges to other nodes of the graph).

He will ask you Q queries. Each query is denoted by an integer X, meaning that he will delete the node X. Since he has a destructive mind, he gets satisfied if the the new graph with deleted node has more number of connected components than the original graph.

If satisfied, he wants you to print “Satisfied”(without quotes) and the number of edges that were removed when deleting node X, else print “Not Satisfied”(without quotes). All queries are different, and the original graph is restored after each query.
