Teleporters Path - Core idea

Check in/out degree conditions.

Core idea: You need an Euler path from level 11 to level nn.

Conditions for directed Euler path:

  • Vertex 11 (start): out-degree=in-degree+1\text{out-degree} = \text{in-degree} + 1
  • Vertex nn (end): in-degree=out-degree+1\text{in-degree} = \text{out-degree} + 1
  • All other vertices: in-degree=out-degree\text{in-degree} = \text{out-degree}

If these conditions aren't met exactly, output "IMPOSSIBLE".

Also check: The graph must be connected (underlying undirected graph).
