TRT - Treats for the Cows


FJ has purchased N (1 <= N <= 2000) yummy treats for the cows who get money for giving vast amounts of milk. FJ sells one treat per day and wants to maximize the money he receives over a given period time. The treats are interesting for many reasons:

  • The treats are numbered 1..N and stored sequentially in single file in a long box that is open at both ends. On any day, FJ can retrieve one treat from either end of his stash of treats.
  • Like fine wines and delicious cheeses, the treats improve with age and command greater prices.
  • The treats are not uniform: some are better and have higher intrinsic value. Treat i has value v(i) (1 <= v(i) <= 1000).
  • Cows pay more for treats that have aged longer: a cow will pay v(i)*a for a treat of age a.

Given the values v(i) of each of the treats lined up in order of the index i in their box, what is the greatest value FJ can receive for them if he orders their sale optimally?

The first treat is sold on day 1 and has age a=1. Each subsequent day increases the age by 1.

Input

Line 1: A single integer, N

Lines 2..N+1: Line i+1 contains the value of treat v(i)

Output

The maximum revenue FJ can achieve by selling the treats

Example

Input:
5

Output:
43

My first thought was a 3D array for front,rear,age. But such large arrays can't be allocated.So think how age can be expressed in terms of front and rear and make 2D array for front,rear :) Happy coding!

simple recursion+memorization ,,,

Read the very first answer of this question.

It's not a greedy problem.u consider this test case u will get the ans

can anyone suggest test case where greedy approach fails

For those who don't understand here is my explanation to them: All you need to do here is to find the maximum profit constraint is that you can choose either the most left or most right.

map+pair=>TLE
2-d array=>ac

Nice 1! My 2nd Dp! ^_^

It took me 1 hour to come up with a test case where the greedy approach might fail. I was totally convinced that greedy is the way to go until i used a test case where all values are not distinct. Memorized Recursion for AC.
