Problem Description

You are given a sequence of n integers a₁ , a₂ , ... , a_n in non-decreasing order. In addition to that, you are given several queries consisting of indices i and j (1 ≤ i ≤ j ≤ n). For each query, determine the most frequent value among the integers a_i , ... , a_j .

Input

The input consists of several test cases. Each test case starts with a line containing two integers n and q (1 ≤ n, q ≤ 100000). The next line contains n integers a₁ , ... , a_n(-100000 ≤ a_i ≤ 100000, for each i ∈ {1, ..., n}) separated by spaces. You can assume that for each i ∈ {1, ..., n-1}: a_i ≤ a_i+1. The following q lines contain one query each, consisting of two integers i and j (1 ≤ i ≤ j ≤ n), which indicate the boundary indices for the query.

The last test case is followed by a line containing a single 0.

Output

For each query, print one line with one integer: The number of occurrences of the most frequent value within the given range.

Sample Input

10 3
-1 -1 1 1 1 1 3 10 10 10
2 3
1 10
5 10
0

Sample Output

1
4
3

Hint

A naive algorithm may not run in time!
