The king is left alone on the chessboard. In spite of this loneliness, he doesn't lose heart, because he has business of national importance. For example, he has to pay an official visit to square t.
As the king is not in habit of wasting his time, he wants to get from his current position s to square t in
the least number of moves. Help him to do this.



In one move the king can get to the square that has a common side or a common vertex with the square the king is currently in (generally there are 8 different squares he can move to).

Input

The first line contains the chessboard coordinates of square s, the second line — of square t.

Chessboard coordinates consist of two characters, the first one is a lowercase Latin letter (from a to h),
the second one is a digit from 1to 8.

Output

In the first line print n — minimum number of the king's moves. Then in n lines
print the moves themselves. Each move is described with one of the 8: L, R, U, D, LU, LD, RU or RD.

L, R, U, D stand
respectively for moves left, right, up and down (according to the picture), and 2-letter combinations stand for diagonal moves. If the answer is not unique, print any of them.

解题说明:这道题是求从棋盘一个位置到另一个位置的最短距离,可以按照上下左右对角线八个方向进行移动。首先应该把棋盘字母坐标转换为数字判断横纵坐标差值各是多少,由于一步棋可以同时改变横纵坐标,所以移动距离至少为这两个坐标中的最大值。在移动时以坐标相等为终止条件,否则就通过不断比较横纵坐标的大小进行方向判断。
