You are given an array $$$a$$$ of length $$$n$$$. We define the equality of the array as the number of indices $$$1 \le i \le n - 1$$$ such that $$$a_i = a_{i + 1}$$$. We are allowed to do the following operation: Select two integers $$$i$$$ and $$$x$$$ such that $$$1 \le i \le n - 1$$$ and $$$1 \le x \le 10^9$$$. Then, set $$$a_i$$$ and $$$a_{i + 1}$$$ to be equal to $$$x$$$. Find the minimum number of operations needed such that the equality of the array is less than or equal to $$$1$$$.

You are given an array $$$a$$$ of length $$$n$$$. We define the equality of the array as the number of indices $$$1 \le i \le n - 1$$$ such that $$$a_i = a_{i + 1}$$$. We are allowed to do the following operation: Select two integers $$$i$$$ and $$$x$$$ such that $$$1 \le i \le n - 1$$$ and $$$1 \le x \le 10^9$$$. Then, set $$$a_i$$$ and $$$a_{i + 1}$$$ to be equal to $$$x$$$. Find the minimum number of operations needed such that the equality of the array is less than or equal to $$$1$$$.

Each test contains multiple test cases. The first line contains a single integer $$$t$$$ ($$$1 \leq t \leq 10^4$$$) — the number of test cases. The description of the test cases follows. The first line of each test case contains an integer $$$n$$$ ($$$2 \le n \le 2 \cdot 10 ^ 5$$$) — the length of array $$$a$$$. The second line of each test case contains $$$n$$$ integers $$$a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n$$$ ($$$1 \le a_i \le 10^9$$$) — elements of the array.

Each test contains multiple test cases. The first line contains a single integer $$$t$$$ ($$$1 \leq t \leq 10^4$$$) — the number of test cases. The description of the test cases follows. The first line of each test case contains an integer $$$n$$$ ($$$2 \le n \le 2 \cdot 10 ^ 5$$$) — the length of array $$$a$$$. The second line of each test case contains $$$n$$$ integers $$$a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n$$$ ($$$1 \le a_i \le 10^9$$$) — elements of the array. It is guaranteed that the sum of $$$n$$$ over all test cases does not exceed $$$2 \cdot 10 ^ 5$$$

You are given an array $$$a$$$ of length $$$n$$$. We define the equality of the array as the number of indices $$$1 \le i \le n - 1$$$ such that $$$a_i = a_{i + 1}$$$. We are allowed to do the following operation: Select two integers $$$i$$$ and $$$x$$$ such that $$$1 \le i \le n - 1$$$ and $$$1 \le x \le 10^9$$$. Then, set $$$a_i$$$ and $$$a_{i + 1}$$$ to be equal to $$$x$$$. Find the minimum number of operations needed such that the equality of the array is less than or equal to $$$1$$$.

Each test contains multiple test cases. The first line contains a single integer $$$t$$$ ($$$1 \leq t \leq 10^4$$$)  — the number of test cases. The description of the test cases follows. The first line of each test case contains an integer $$$n$$$ ($$$1 \le n \le 2 \cdot 10 ^ 5$$$)  — the length of array $$$a$$$ and $$$b$$$. The second line of each test case contains $$$n$$$ integers $$$a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n$$$ ($$$1 \le a_i \le n$$$)  — elements of the array $$$a$$$. The third line of each test case contains $$$n$$$ integers $$$b_1, b_2, \ldots, b_n$$$ ($$$1 \le b_i \le n$$$)  — elements of the array $$$b$$$.

For each test case, print "YES" (without quotes) if it is possible to transform array $$$a$$$ to $$$b$$$, and "NO" (without quotes) otherwise. You can output "YES" and "NO" in any case (for example, strings "yEs", "yes" and "Yes" will be recognized as a positive response).

There is an array $$$a$$$ of length $$$n$$$. You may perform the following operation any number of times: Choose two indices $$$l$$$ and $$$r$$$ where $$$1 \le l &lt; r \le n$$$ and $$$a_l = a_r$$$. Then, set $$$a[l \ldots r] = [a_{l+1}, a_{l+2}, \ldots, a_r, a_l]$$$. You are also given another array $$$b$$$ of length $$$n$$$ which is a permutation of $$$a$$$. Determine whether it is possible to transform array $$$a$$$ into an array $$$b$$$ using the above operation some number of times.

Each test contains multiple test cases. The first line contains a single integer $$$t$$$ ($$$1 \leq t \leq 10^4$$$)  — the number of test cases. The description of the test cases follows. The first line of each test case contains an integer $$$n$$$ ($$$1 \le n \le 2 \cdot 10 ^ 5$$$)  — the length of array $$$a$$$ and $$$b$$$. The second line of each test case contains $$$n$$$ integers $$$a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n$$$ ($$$1 \le a_i \le n$$$)  — elements of the array $$$a$$$. The third line of each test case contains $$$n$$$ integers $$$b_1, b_2, \ldots, b_n$$$ ($$$1 \le b_i \le n$$$)  — elements of the array $$$b$$$. It is guaranteed that $$$b$$$ is a permutation of $$$a$$$. It is guaranteed that the sum of $$$n$$$ over all test cases does not exceed $$$2 \cdot 10 ^ 5$$$

For each test case, print "YES" (without quotes) if it is possible to transform array $$$a$$$ to $$$b$$$, and "NO" (without quotes) otherwise. You can output "YES" and "NO" in any case (for example, strings "yEs", "yes" and "Yes" will be recognized as a positive response).

There is an array $$$a$$$ of length $$$n$$$. You may perform the following operation any number of times: Choose two indices $$$l$$$ and $$$r$$$ where $$$1 \le l &lt; r \le n$$$ and $$$a_l = a_r$$$. Then, set $$$a[l \ldots r] = [a_{l+1}, a_{l+2}, \ldots, a_r, a_l]$$$. You are also given another array $$$b$$$ of length $$$n$$$ which is a permutation of $$$a$$$. Determine whether it is possible to transform array $$$a$$$ into an array $$$b$$$ using the above operation some number of times.

NoteIn the first test case, we can choose $$$l=2$$$ and $$$r=5$$$ to form $$$[1, 3, 3, 2, 2]$$$.In the second test case, we can choose $$$l=2$$$ and $$$r=4$$$ to form $$$[1, 4, 2, 2, 1]$$$. Then, we can choose $$$l=1$$$ and $$$r=5$$$ to form $$$[4, 2, 2, 1, 1]$$$.In the third test case, it can be proven that it is not possible to transform array $$$a$$$ to $$$b$$$ using the operation.

Each test contains multiple test cases. The first line contains a single integer $$$t$$$ ($$$1 \leq t \leq 10^4$$$)  — the number of test cases. The description of the test cases follows. The first line of each test case contains an integer $$$n$$$ ($$$1 \le n \le 2 \cdot 10 ^ 5$$$)  — the length of array $$$a$$$ and $$$b$$$. The second line of each test case contains $$$n$$$ integers $$$a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n$$$ ($$$1 \le a_i \le n$$$)  — elements of the array $$$a$$$. The third line of each test case contains $$$n$$$ integers $$$b_1, b_2, \ldots, b_n$$$ ($$$1 \le b_i \le n$$$)  — elements of the array $$$b$$$. It is guaranteed that $$$b$$$ is a permutation of $$$a$$$. It is guaranteed that the sum of $$$n$$$ over all test cases does not exceed $$$2 \cdot 10 ^ 5$$$

For each test case, print "YES" (without quotes) if it is possible to transform array $$$a$$$ to $$$b$$$, and "NO" (without quotes) otherwise. You can output "YES" and "NO" in any case (for example, strings "yEs", "yes" and "Yes" will be recognized as a positive response).

There is an array $$$a$$$ of length $$$n$$$. You may perform the following operation any number of times: Choose two indices $$$l$$$ and $$$r$$$ where $$$1 \le l &lt; r \le n$$$ and $$$a_l = a_r$$$. Then, set $$$a[l \ldots r] = [a_{l+1}, a_{l+2}, \ldots, a_r, a_l]$$$. You are also given another array $$$b$$$ of length $$$n$$$ which is a permutation of $$$a$$$. Determine whether it is possible to transform array $$$a$$$ into an array $$$b$$$ using the above operation some number of times.
