Problem 10010 : No special judgement
Problem description
The Recaman’s sequence is defined by a0 = 0 ; for m > 0, am = am−1 − m if the rsulting am is positive and not already in the sequence, otherwise am = am−1 + m.
The first few numbers in the Recaman’s Sequence is 0, 1, 3, 6, 2, 7, 13, 20, 12, 21, 11, 22, 10, 23, 9 …
Given k, your task is to calculate ak.
Input
The input consists of several test cases. Each line of the input contains an integer k where 0 <= k <= 500000. The last line contains an integer −1, which should not be processed.
Output
For each k given in the input, print one line containing ak to the output.
Sample Input
7
10000
-1
Sample Output
20
18658
