Problem Description
The highest building in our city has only one elevator. A
request list is made up with N positive numbers. The numbers denote
at which floors the elevator will stop, in specified order. It
costs 6 seconds to move the elevator up one floor, and 4 seconds to
move down one floor. The elevator will stay for 5 seconds at each
stop.
For a given request list, you are to compute the total time spent
to fulfill the requests on the list. The elevator is on the 0th
floor at the beginning and does not have to return to the ground
floor when the requests are fulfilled.
Input
There are multiple test cases. Each case contains a positive
integer N, followed by N positive numbers. All the numbers in the
input are less than 100. A test case with N = 0 denotes the end of
input. This test case is not to be processed.
Output
Print the total time on a single line for each test
case.
