Description
FJ is surveying his herd to find the most averagecow. He wants to know how much milk this 'median' cow gives: half of the cowsgive as much or more than the median; half give as much or less.
Given an odd number of cows N (1 <= N < 10,000) and their milk output(1..1,000,000), find the median amount of milk given such that at least halfthe cows give the same amount of milk or more and at least half give the sameor less.
Input
* Line 1: A single integer N
* Lines 2..N+1: Each line contains a single integer that is the milk output ofone cow.
Output
* Line 1: A single integer that is the median milkoutput.
Sample Input
5

Sample Output
3
Hint
INPUT DETAILS:
Five cows with milk outputs of 1..5
OUTPUT DETAILS:
1 and 2 are below 3; 4 and 5 are above 3.
