Problem type

After landing a job in a math empire, Mr. White's first task is to grade Massey students' Putnam contests. In total, there are $N$ ~N~ $(1 \le N \le 100\,000)$ ~(1 \le N \le 100\,000)~ contests that require marking, each with a certain score associated with them. Since the contest is so difficult, it is possible for students to get negative marks.

Furthermore, Mr. White can only send in up to $K$ ~K~ $(1 \le K \le N)$ ~(1 \le K \le N)~ of the contests. Help Mr. White find the maximum sum of scores that he can send in.

Input Specification

The first line contains two space-separated integers $N$ ~N~ and $K$ ~K~.

This is followed by $N$ ~N~ lines, each containing a single integer, describing the contest scores.

Output Specification

Print a single integer, the maximum sum of up to $K$ ~K~ contest scores. The answer will be guaranteed to fit inside of a 32-bit signed integer.

do the scores have to be adjacent to each other, or just add the top $K$ ~K~?

Just going to say, you're getting something else wrong that you would probably figure out without me mentioning it but I want to sound smart.

Anyway,

"it is possible for students to get negative marks."

so as a "so-I-don't-get-banned-again" example, if BMP is really bad at computer programming and would only make his ECOO team worse if he was sent, and ECOO teams should have 4 people, and including BMP there are only 4 people who want to take ECOO, then maybe it's better to kick BMP out of the team.
