Same thing as "Tree Matching" but on a functional graph. We can use the same greedy strategy of repeatedly matching a leaf to an adjacent vertex.

MLE:

#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
using ll = long long;
using ld = long double;
using db = double;
using str = string; // yay python!
using pi = pair<int, int>;
using pl = pair<ll, ll>;

OK:

#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
using ll = long long;
using ld = long double;
using db = double;
using str = string; // yay python!
using pi = pair<int, int>;
using pl = pair<ll, ll>;
