Binary Lifting

H
/**
 * Author: Adrito Mukherjee
 * Binary Lifting implementation in Javascript
 * Binary Lifting is a technique that is used to find the kth ancestor of a node in a rooted tree with N nodes
 * The technique requires preprocessing the tree in O(N log N) using dynamic programming
 * The technique can answer Q queries about kth ancestor of any node in O(Q log N)
 * It is faster than the naive algorithm that answers Q queries with complexity O(Q K)
 * It can be used to find Lowest Common Ancestor of two nodes in O(log N)
 * Tutorial on Binary Lifting: https://codeforces.com/blog/entry/100826
