You are given n rods of length 1, 2, . . . , n. You have to pick any 3 of them and build a triangle. Howmany distinct triangles can you make? Note that, two triangles will be considered different if they haveat least 1 pair of arms with different length.
Input
The input for each case will have only a single positive integer n (3 ≤ n ≤ 1000000). The end of inputwill be indicated by a case with n < 3. This case should not be processed.
Output
For each test case, print the number of distinct triangles you can make.
Sample Input
5
8
0
Sample Output
3
22

问题简述:(略)
问题分析:这是一个递推组合的问题,关键是找出递推函数来。不解释!程序说明:打表是必要的!还需要注意变量类型!!!
