Description
Jessica's a very lovely girl wooed by lots of boys. Recently she has a problem. The final exam is coming, yet she has spent little time on it. If she wants to pass it, she has to master all ideas included in a very thick text book. The author of that text book, like other authors, is extremely fussy about the ideas, thus some ideas are covered more than once. Jessica think if she managed to read each idea at least once, she can pass the exam. She decides to read only one contiguous part of the book which contains all ideas covered by the entire book. And of course, the sub-book should be as thin as possible.
A very hard-working boy had manually indexed for her each page of Jessica's text-book with what idea each page is about and thus made a big progress for his courtship. Here you come in to save your skin: given the index, help Jessica decide which contiguous part she should read. For convenience, each idea has been coded with an ID, which is a non-negative integer.
Input
The first line of input is an integer P (1 ≤ P ≤ 1000000), which is the number of pages of Jessica's text-book. The second line contains P non-negative integers describing what idea each page is about. The first integer is what the first page is about, the second integer is what the second page is about, and so on. You may assume all integers that appear can fit well in the signed 32-bit integer type.
Output
Output one line: the number of pages of the shortest contiguous part of the book which contains all ideals covered in the book.
Sample Input

转载一段讲解
我们先来介绍一下尺取法。尺取法，顾名思义，像尺子一样，一块一块的截取。是不是解释的有点让人纳闷～。。没关系，下面我们通过这个题目来体会尺取法的魅力。
题目翻译：
给定长度为n的数列整数a0,a1,a2,a3 ..... an-1以及整数S。求出综合不小于S的连续子序列的长度的最小值。如果解不存在，则输出0。
限制条件：
10
0
S<10^8
这里我们拿第一组测试数据举例子，即 n=10, S = 15, a = {5,1,3,5,10,7,4,9,2,8}
这幅图便是尺取法怎么"取"的过程了。
整个过程分为4布：
1.初始化左右端点
2.不断扩大右端点，直到满足条件
3.如果第二步中无法满足条件，则终止，否则更新结果
4.将左端点扩大1，然后回到第二步
用尺取法来优化，使复杂度降为了O(n)。
最后，再给一个尺取法的定义以便更好理解：返回的推进区间开头和结尾，求满足条件的最小区间的方法称为尺取法。
以上为网上关于尺取法的原理介绍，还是比较好理解的，邢如蚯蚓的爬动。
然后这道题可以先用set ，统计出不同的知识点有多少个，总是记为total
然后根据一段区间内的知识点数目sum是否达到total来移动两个pointer head 和tail
因为知识点的标号比较大，数组下表存不下，所以开个map来统计相应知识点出现的数量...
然后还有个．．．
误以为if (cnt[a[tail++]]++==0) sum++;和
if (cnt[a[tail]]==0)
{
sum++;
cnt[a[taill]]++;
tail++;
}
是等价的．．．
幸好没去队群里问．．．不然又要被嘲讽一番了．．
区别在于．前者无论cnt[a[tail]]是否为0，tail和cnt都会＋＋；
而后者．．只有在cnt[a[tail]]为０时，tail和cnt才会＋＋
