Can anyone who solved problem A explain their solution?

I was thinking of a hacky solution of creating segtree storing xor, sum, product(mod prime) of a range in node, then query to check if those properties are equal. I do not ex[pect this to be the official solution. Can anyone post the solution/hints?

    Hint: For each number remember nearest left/right element with same value. It's easy to change this value during update.

    If a[l,r] is a permutation: 1) Minimum is 1

    2) Maximum is r-l+1

    3) All elements are distinct( minimum of left values <= l)

    Create a segment tree and store sum of where . To check just compare the sum of segment with . Update is easy.
