Problem: https://www.codechef.com/problems/HLD/
I was only able to come up with the simple O(n^2) DP. I went through the editorial but didn't fully understand it.
Can someone share their ideas/approaches.
Any help would be appreciated.

EDIT: Nevermind, I'm dumb.
Can you explain it in a bit more detail. Why log N times and how it's useful.
Nevermind, you're right. I'll get back to you if I'm able to think about the answer.
I think you have misread the problem. We have to mark the edges heavy/light to get the minimum cost.
Any updates
