Table: Friendship

+---------------+---------+
| Column Name   | Type    |

| user1_id      | int     |
| user2_id      | int     |
+---------------+---------+
(user1_id, user2_id) is the primary key (combination of columns with unique values) for this table.
Each row of this table indicates that the users user1_id and user2_id are friends.
Note that user1_id < user2_id.

 

Write a solution to report the similar friends of Leetcodify users. A user x and user y are similar friends if:

  • Users x and y are friends, and
  • Users x and y listened to the same three or more different songs on the same day.

Return the result table in any order. Note that you must return the similar pairs of friends the same way they were represented in the input (i.e., always user1_id < user2_id).

The result format is in the following example.
