Inthis problem you will have to find in how many ways n letters can be bracketed so that the bracketing is non-binarybracketing. For example 4 lettershave 11 possible bracketing:
xxxx, (xx)xx, x(xx)x, xx(xx),(xxx)x, x(xxx), ((xx)x)x, (x(xx))x, (xx)(xx), x((xx)x), x(x(xx)). Of these the first sixbracketing are not binary. Given the number of letters you will have to findthe total number of non-binary bracketing.
Input
Theinput file contains several lines of input. Each line contains a single integern (0<n<=26). Input isterminated by end of file.
Output
For each line of input produce one line of outputwhich denotes the number of non binary bracketing with n letters.
