We study how well can $q$-query decision trees distinguish between the
following two distributions: (i) $R=(R_1,\ldots,R_N)$ that are i.i.d.
variables, (ii) $X=(R|R \in A)$ where $A$ is an event s.t. $\Pr[R \in A] \ge
2^{-a}$. We prove two lemmas:

- Forbidden-set lemma: There exists $B \subseteq [N]$ of
