You have been given a binary tree of integers with N number of nodes. Your task is to check if that input tree is a BST (Binary Search Tree) or not.

A binary search tree (BST) is a binary tree data structure which has the following properties.

• The left subtree of a node contains only nodes with data less than the node’s data.
• The right subtree of a node contains only nodes with data greater than the node’s data.
• Both the left and right subtrees must also be binary search trees.

Example :

Answer :

Level 1: 

All the nodes in the left subtree of 4 (2, 1, 3) are smaller 
than 4, all the nodes in the right subtree of the 4 (5) are 
larger than 4.

Level 2 :

For node 2:
All the nodes in the left subtree of 2 (1) are smaller than 
2, all the nodes in the right subtree of the 2 (3) are larger than 2.
For node 5:
The left and right subtrees for node 5 are empty.

Level 3:

For node 1:
The left and right subtrees for node 1 are empty.
For node 3:
The left and right subtrees for node 3 are empty.

Because all the nodes follow the property of a binary search tree, the above tree is a binary search tree.

Aahad and Harshit always have fun by solving problems. Harshit took a sorted array consisting of distinct integers and rotated it clockwise by an unknown amount. For example, he took a sorted array = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] and if he rotates it by 2, then the array becomes: [4, 5, 1, 2, 3].

After rotating a sorted array, Aahad needs to answer Q queries asked by Harshit, each of them is described by one integer Q[i]. which Harshit wanted him to search in the array. For each query, if he found it, he had to shout the index of the number, otherwise, he had to shout -1.

For each query, you have to complete the given method where 'key' denotes Q[i]. If the key exists in the array, return the index of the 'key', otherwise, return -1.

Note:

Can you solve each query in O(logN) ?

Given a singly linked list of integers. Your task is to return the head of the reversed linked list.

For example:

The given linked list is 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4-> NULL. Then the reverse linked list is 4 -> 3 -> 2 -> 1 -> NULL and the head of the reversed linked list will be 4.
