View as PDFSon Halo owns  spaceships numbered from 
 to 
 and a space station. They are initially placed on one line with the space station so the spaceship 
 is positioned 
 meters from the station and all ships are on the same side from the station (
). All 
 are distinct. The station is considered to have number 
 and 
 is considered to be equal to 
.
Every two spaceships with consequent numbers are connected by a rope, and the first one is connected to the station. The rope number  (for 
) connects ships 
 and 
. Note, that the rope number 
 connects the first ship to the station.
Son Halo considers that the rope  and the rope 
 intersect when the segments 
 and 
 have common internal point but neither one of them is completely contained in the other, where 
, 
. That is:
Son Halo wants to rearrange spaceships in such a way, that there are no rope intersections. Because he is lazy, he wants to rearrange the ships in such a way, that the total number of ships that remain at their original position  is maximal. All the ships must stay on the same side of the station and at different positions 
 after rearrangement. However, ships can occupy any real positions 
 after rearrangement.
Your task is to figure out what is the maximal number of ships that can remain at their initial positions.
Input Specification
The first line of the input file contains  (
) — the number of ships. The following line contains 
 distinct integers 
 (
) — the initial positions of the spaceships.
Output Specification
The output file must contain one integer — the maximal number of ships that can remain at their initial positions in the solution of this problem.

Sample Output 2

Note
In the first sample, Son Halo can move the second spaceship in the position between the first and the third to solve the problem while keeping 3 other ships at their initial positions.
In the second sample, there are no rope intersections, so all 4 ships can be left at their initial positions.
