NAKANJ - Minimum Knight moves !!!

Anjali and Nakul are good friends. They both had a quarrel recently while playing chess. Nakul wants to know the minimum number of moves a knight takes to reach from one square to another square of a chess board (8 × 8). Nakul is brilliant and he had already written a program to solve the problem. Nakul wants to know whether Anjali can do it. Anjali is very weak in programming. Help her to solve the problem.

A knight can move in the shape of an "L" in a chessboard - two squares either forward, backward, left, or right and then one square to its left or right. A knight move is valid if it moves as mentioned above and it is within the boundary of the chessboard (8 × 8).

knight

Input

There are T test cases in total. The next T lines contain two strings (start and destination) separated by a space.

The strings start and destination will only contain two characters - First character is an alphabet between 'a' and 'h' (inclusive), Second character is a digit between '1' and '8' (inclusive) - (Quotes just for clarity).

To know the knight moves more clearly refer to the above figure.

Output

Print the minimum number of moves a knight takes to reach from start to destination in a separate line.

Constraints

1 <= T <= 4096

Example

Input:
3
a1 h8
a1 c2
h8 c3

Output:
6
1
4

My first comment, great problem, many people suggest the correct answer, I tried dx, dy movements, and checked if it belongs to a valid position.

can use alias like this(key : value pair) {{a: 1},{b: 2},{c: 3},{d: 4},{e: 5},{f: 6},{g: 7},{h: 8}}

TEST CASES not good. As from x = 4, y = 4 to x = 4 y = 4. ans is 0. But my code were failing but still got accepted.
