Problem Description
Some days ago, I learned the concept of LCM (least common multiple). I've played with it for several times and I want to make a big number with it.
But I also don't want to use many numbers, so I'll choose three positive integers (they don't have to be distinct) which are not greater than n. Can you help me to find the maximum possible least common multiple of these three integers?
Input
The first line contains an integer n (1 ≤ n ≤ 106) — the n mentioned in the statement.
Output
Print a single integer — the maximum possible LCM of three not necessarily distinct positive integers that are not greater than n.
Examples
Input
9
Output
504
Input
7
Output
210Note
The least common multiple of some positive integers is the least positive integer which is multiple for each of them.
The result may become very large, 32-bit integer won't be enough. So using 64-bit integers is recommended.
For the last example, we can chose numbers 7, 6, 5 and the LCM of them is 7·6·5 = 210. It is the maximum value we can get.
题意:给出一个数 n,要求找三个不大于 n 的数,使得他们的最小公倍数最大
思路:
要找三个数的最小公倍数需要从后向前找
由于两个相邻奇数的最小公倍数是他们的乘积,且 奇数*奇数=偶数,因此,两个相邻奇数与他们中间的那个偶数相乘后,就是这三个数的最小公倍数,故当 n 为奇数时,最大的最小公倍数是 n*(n-1)*(n-2)
当 n 偶数时,由于 n 与 n-2 此时均为偶数,因此最大的最小公倍数不再是 n*(n-1)*(n-2),延续 n 是奇数的作法,最大的最小公倍数为 n*(n-1)*(n-3),但此时不一定是最大的,由于 n 与 n-3 之间差 3,因此 n 与 n-3 的最小公倍数是要小于两数相乘的,此时就不能用第一个偶数与前两个奇数相乘,而是要用第二个偶数与前两个奇数相乘,即 (n-1)*(n-2)*(n-3)
