codeforces 832D Misha, Grisha and Underground 最近公共祖先LCA

Input
The first line contains two integers n and q (2 ≤ n ≤ 105, 1 ≤ q ≤ 105) — the number of stations and the number of days.

The second line contains n - 1 integers p2, p3, ..., pn (1 ≤ pi ≤ n). The integer pi means that there is a route between stations pi and i. It is guaranteed that it's possible to reach every station from any other.

The next q lines contains three integers a, b and c each (1 ≤ a, b, c ≤ n) — the ids of stations chosen by boys for some day. Note that some of these ids could be same.

Output
Print q lines. In the i-th of these lines print the maximum possible number Grisha can get counting when the stations s, t and f are chosen optimally from the three stations on the i-th day.

分析：给3个点任选一个作为终点其他两个为起始点，求两条路径相交的最大值。

求树上的路径可以用LCA。求两条路径的相交长度 为：(d(a,b) + d(c,b) - d(a,c)) /2  其中b为终点---这两条的路径必有相交点所以有此公式。
