Problem Understanding

We have a collection of n bills. Their values are not given directly, but are generated from two random seeds using the provided xorshift128+ generator. Every generated value is different. During the process, some bills are unpaid and some have already been paid.

The commands modify or inspect the current unpaid set. A query F x asks for the smallest unpaid bill whose value is at least x. A command D x removes that same bill from the unpaid set because it has been paid. A query C x asks for the total value of all unpaid bills not exceeding x. A command R x restores every paid bill with value at most x, making those bills unpaid again.

The generated values are up to almost 10^12, so the actual values must be handled as 64-bit integers. The number of bills can reach one million and the total number of commands is much larger than a typical linear-per-query solution can handle. A solution that scans all bills for every command could perform about 10^12 operations in the worst case, which is far beyond the available time. We need logarithmic processing per command.

The difficult part is the refund operation. It can activate many bills at once, but it happens at most ten times. A data structure must support both individual removals and a large prefix restoration.

A careless implementation can fail in several ways. If a command F asks for a value larger than every unpaid bill, returning the largest existing value is wrong. For example, with bills {5, 9}, the command F 10 must output 10^12, the required sentinel value, because no valid bill exists.

Another mistake is confusing paid bills with nonexistent bills. Suppose the bills are {3, 7, 11}. After D 7, a query C 10 must return 3, not 10, because the paid bill is not part of the unpaid collection.

Refund boundaries are also easy to mishandle. With bills {4, 8, 12}, the command R 8 must restore both 4 and 8. Using a strict comparison instead of an inclusive one would incorrectly leave 8 paid.

Approaches

A direct solution is to keep all bills in a list and scan it whenever a command arrives. For F and D, we search all unpaid bills and keep the best candidate. For C, we sum all unpaid bills that satisfy the condition. This is correct because every command is defined over the current set of unpaid bills.

The problem is the amount of work. With one million bills and hundreds of thousands of commands, a worst case sequence of queries can require around 5 * 10^11 checks. The method is not close to fast enough.

The key observation is that the bills never change value. Only their state changes. After sorting the values, every operation becomes a question about positions in this sorted array. A segment tree can store information about intervals of positions. Each node keeps the number of currently unpaid bills in the interval and the sum of their values.

The refund operation looks expensive because it can affect many bills, but it always changes a prefix of the sorted array into the same state: all bills become unpaid. This means a segment tree lazy assignment is enough. When a whole segment is covered by a refund, we can mark it as completely active without visiting its children.

The same tree can find the first active position after a lower bound, remove one bill by setting one position inactive, and answer prefix sums.

Brute Force	O(nQ)	O(n)	Too slow
Segment Tree	O((n + Q) log n)	O(n)	Accepted

Algorithm Walkthrough

1. Generate all bill values and sort them. The sorted order lets value comparisons become index ranges.
2. Build a segment tree over the sorted positions. Every position starts as unpaid, so every node initially stores the number of bills in its segment and the sum of all values in that segment.
3. For F x, find the first sorted position whose value is at least x. Then search the segment tree from that position onward for the first segment containing an unpaid bill. If no such position exists, print 10^12.
4. For D x, perform the same search as F x. If a position is found, update that single position so its active count and contribution become zero.
5. For C x, find the last sorted position whose value is at most x. Query the segment tree prefix up to that position and return the stored sum.
6. For R x, find the last sorted position whose value is at most x. Apply a lazy assignment to that prefix, setting every covered position to unpaid.

The invariant is that the segment tree always represents exactly the current unpaid bills. Point deletion removes exactly one active position. Prefix restoration makes every position in the requested value range active. Since every query reads only from this maintained representation, the returned values match the required unpaid set.

The generator is reproduced using unsigned 64-bit arithmetic. Python integers do not overflow naturally, so masking with (1 << 64) - 1 keeps the same behavior as C++ unsigned long long.

The segment tree stores counts and sums only for unpaid bills. A lazy flag means an entire segment has been restored. The implementation avoids expanding that segment immediately because future operations can work correctly from the stored aggregate values.

The first function is the core of F and D. It ignores every segment that contains no unpaid bills and recursively searches left before right because the array is sorted and the leftmost valid position is required.

The binary searches use bisect_left for "at least x" and bisect_right - 1 for "at most x". Mixing these two boundaries is a common source of wrong answers in this problem.

Worked Examples

Consider bills {4, 9, 15}.

Command	Active bills	Operation result
F 8	4, 9, 15	returns 9
D 9	4, 15	removes 9
C 10	4, 15	returns 4
R 10	4, 9, 15	restores 9
C 10	4, 9, 15	returns 13

This trace shows that removed bills disappear from sums and searches, then return after a prefix restoration.

A second example uses boundary values {5, 10, 20}.

Command	Active bills	Operation result
D 10	5, 20	removes exactly 10
F 10	5, 20	returns 20
C 10	5, 20	returns 5
R 10	5, 10, 20	restores 10

The example confirms that comparisons are inclusive.

Complexity Analysis

Measure	Complexity	Explanation
Time	O((n + Q) log n)	Building and every command use logarithmic tree operations
Space	O(n)	The sorted values and segment tree each store linear information

The largest test sizes require millions of bills and commands. A linear scan per operation cannot fit, but the segment tree keeps each operation around logarithmic time. The refund limit is not needed for this solution's correctness, because prefix assignments are handled directly by lazy propagation.

Test Cases

import sys, io

def run(inp):
    old = sys.stdin
    sys.stdin = io.StringIO(inp)
    # call solve() from the submitted solution
    sys.stdin = old
    return ""

# The following cases should be run after placing solve() in the harness.

# Minimum-size generation and commands
# Covers single bill behavior.

# Removing all bills and querying empty states.
# Covers missing successor and empty sums.

# Refund after multiple deletions.
# Covers lazy restoration.

# Values at exact x boundaries.
# Covers inclusive comparisons.

Test input	Expected output	What it validates
One generated bill, F and C queries	Generated value and sum	Single-element handling
Delete every bill, then search	Sentinel and zero	Empty tree behavior
Delete a prefix, refund it, query sums	Restored totals	Lazy prefix assignment
Query exactly equal values	Inclusive answers	Boundary correctness

Edge Cases

When no unpaid bill satisfies F x, the tree search reaches a segment with zero active count and returns -1. For example, after paying {5, 8}, searching F 1 must still fail because no unpaid positions remain.

When a refunded range contains already unpaid bills, assigning the prefix to active again is harmless. The segment tree stores the final state rather than counting operations, so restoring an already active bill does not double count it.

For an exact boundary refund, the use of bisect_right includes bills equal to x. With values {4, 8, 12}, after paying 8, R 8 updates positions 4 and 8, bringing the sum from 16 back to 24.

The sorted-index representation is what makes all of these cases work together. The tree never needs to know the actual meaning of a bill beyond its position and value, so every command becomes a controlled update or query over the current active prefix or suffix.
