A14873 | Line Empire

You are an ambitious king who wants to be the Emperor of The Reals. But to do that, you must first become Emperor of The Integers.

Consider a number axis. The capital of your empire is initially at $0$ . There are $n$ unconquered kingdoms at positions $0<x_1<x_2<\ldots<x_n$ . You want to conquer all other kingdoms.

There are two actions available to you:

- You can change the location of your capital (let its current position be $c_1$ ) to any other conquered kingdom (let its position be $c_2$ ) at a cost of $a\cdot |c_1-c_2|$ .
- From the current capital (let its current position be $c_1$ ) you can conquer an unconquered kingdom (let its position be $c_2$ ) at a cost of $b\cdot |c_1-c_2|$ . You cannot conquer a kingdom if there is an unconquered kingdom between the target and your capital.

Note that you cannot place the capital at a point without a kingdom. In other words, at any point, your capital can only be at $0$ or one of $x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n$ . Also note that conquering a kingdom does not change the position of your capital.

Find the minimum total cost to conquer all kingdoms. Your capital can be anywhere at the end.

The first line contains a single integer $t$ ( $1 \le t \le 1000$ ) — the number of test cases. The description of each test case follows.

The first line of each test case contains $3$ integers $n$ , $a$ , and $b$ ( $1 \leq n \leq 2 \cdot 10^5$ ; $1 \leq a,b \leq 10^5$ ).

The second line of each test case contains $n$ integers $x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_n$ ( $1 \leq x_1 < x_2 < \ldots < x_n \leq 10^8$ ).

The sum of $n$ over all test cases does not exceed $2 \cdot 10^5$ .

For each test case, output a single integer — the minimum cost to conquer all kingdoms.
