CRCLE_UI - Colorful Circle (EASY)

no tags 

------------------------
I take this problem from my midterm exam today, because for me and some of my friends it's interesting, so I decided to translated this problem into English and upload this problem to SPOJ. See the original problem in Indonesian language here.
------------------------ 

Given N sectors where 1<N<101000, from a circle that sown in the picture below:

circle

We will color each sector with K different colors, where 2<K<101000 such that each sector colored with one color and each adjacent sector must have different color. Your task is to count how many ways to color all that sectors.

Input

First line, there is a number T(0<T<1000) denoting number of test cases, then T lines follow.
each line containing two integers: N and K separated by a space.

Output

For each test case, output number of ways to color the circle, since the number can be too large, take modulo 109+7.

Example

Input:
2
2 3
3 3

Output:
6
6

Explanation:

For the first case, we have two sectors and three colors, here is all possibilities:

2 sectors 3 colors

For second test case, we have three sector and three colors, here is all possibilities:

3 sectors 3 colors

Have fun :)

@Tjandra:if i hav to calculate the no. of ways to color the n sectors with all the k -colors or taken some colors at a time.....i.e if k<=n or not....

@Tjandra my id is 9353125
ًWhy slow ???
<u><b>Ans</b></u>: Your formula isn't fast enough.

<u><b>Edit</b></u>: It's really along time but i like this :(.
Another thing spoj is very disappointed for java programmers.

@Tjandra If possible please have a look at my submission (id->8509987). Quite new to Python, but used it anyway as I thought that Montgomery reduction would be useful.
Not really sure how I can optimize even further. Would definitely appreciate a hint.
Ans: Sorry but formula that you've used is incorrect... And to speed up your code try to reduce mod operations...
