I am usually able to solve two or more questions in competitions, always achieving a score of around 4000. Now that I am green, I haven't even solved a single question in this competition. Is this a degradation of my abilities, or is it just a poor state, or is it due to psychological reasons. Obviously, I lost points. I am both confused and distressed about this. And if I have any problems, how can I improve in my future practice and competition? I hope all the experts can provide more guidance, even if they only give me a little advice. Thank you.

1681D - Required Length This is the topic of this question.

You are given two integer numbers, n and x. You may perform several operations with the integer x.

Each operation you perform is the following one: choose any digit y that occurs in the decimal representation of x at least once, and replace x by x⋅y.

You want to make the length of decimal representation of x (without leading zeroes) equal to n. What is the minimum number of operations required to do that?

Input The only line of the input contains two integers n and x (2≤n≤19; 1≤x<10n−1).

Output Print one integer — the minimum number of operations required to make the length of decimal representation of x (without leading zeroes) equal to n, or −1 if it is impossible.

This is the solution to this problem.(194061061)

I'm ten years old.I come from China.I like to write code with C++.I love codeforces!

I'm so mad that C is wrong because I got the wrong data type!
