Description

Ari the monster always wakes up very early with the first ray of the sun and the first thing she does is feeding her squirrel.

Ari draws a regular convex polygon on the floor and numbers it's vertices 1, 2, ..., n in clockwise order. Then starting from the vertex 1 she draws a ray in the direction of each other vertex. The ray stops when it reaches a vertex or intersects with another ray drawn before. Ari repeats this process for vertex 2, 3, ..., n (in this particular order). And then she puts a walnut in each region inside the polygon.

Ada the squirrel wants to collect all the walnuts, but she is not allowed to step on the lines drawn by Ari. That means Ada have to perform a small jump if she wants to go from one region to another. Ada can jump from one region P to another region Q if and only if P and Q share a side or a corner.

Assuming that Ada starts from outside of the picture, what is the minimum number of jumps she has to perform in order to collect all the walnuts?

Input

The first and only line of the input contains a single integer n (3 ≤ n ≤ 54321) - the number of vertices of the regular polygon drawn by Ari.

Output

Print the minimum number of jumps Ada should make to collect all the walnuts. Note, that she doesn't need to leave the polygon after.

//题意可转化为给你一个凸多边形,每个点有标号为1,2,3,........n。从1向不与它相邻的点连线,然后依次是2,3,....n,但后边的不能穿过前面的线。问这么多的线把这个凸多边形分为几部分。

枚举前几个发现规律

#include<stdio.h>
#include<string.h>
int main()
{
	__int64 n,m;
	while(scanf("%I64d",&n)!=EOF)
	{
		printf("%I64d\n",(n-2)*(n-2));
	}
	return 0;
}


 

Codeforces Round 887是一个程序设计竞赛活动,由Codeforces组织举办。根据引用中的代码,该竞赛的题目要求解决一个序列操作的问题。给定一个长度为n的序列,通过执行一系列操作,使得序列变得非sorted,即非严格递增。具体操作是将序列中[1, i]范围内的数字全部加一,同时将[i+1, n]范围内的数字全部减一。问题要求求解最少需要执行多少次操作才能达到要求。 引用中的代码给出了解决这个问题的实现。代码首先读入序列的长度n和序列a。然后通过判断序列是否已经是非sorted,如果是则直接输出0。接下来,代码遍历序列,求出相邻两个数字的差的最小值。最后,计算出最少需要执行的操作次数,并输出结果。 需要注意的是,引用中的代码只是给出了解决问题的一种实现方式,并不代表Codeforces Round 887的具体题目和解答。要了解该竞赛的具体信息,需要参考Codeforces官方网站或相关资料。<span class="em">1</span><span class="em">2</span><span class="em">3</span> #### 引用[.reference_title] - *1* *2* *3* [Codeforces Round 887 (Div. 2)](https://blog.csdn.net/qq_36545889/article/details/131905067)[target="_blank" data-report-click={"spm":"1018.2226.3001.9630","extra":{"utm_source":"vip_chatgpt_common_search_pc_result","utm_medium":"distribute.pc_search_result.none-task-cask-2~all~insert_cask~default-1-null.142^v93^chatsearchT3_2"}}] [.reference_item style="max-width: 100%"] [ .reference_list ]
