Instructions

Given an array of n integers, find the contiguous subarray with the largest sum.

Contiguous subarray is any sub series of elements in a given array that are contiguous ie their indices are continuous. The problem is interesting when there may be negative values in the array, because if the array only contains positive values, the maximum subarray sum is basically the sum of the array (the subarray being the complete array).

Input

• Line 1: An integer n for the length of the list of integers
• n next lines: the integers

Output

The largest sum of a contiguous subarray.

Examples

See the test folder for examples of input/output.

Example 1

Input

6
1
2
3
4
5
6

Output

21

Explanation: The subarray with the largest sum is the array itself (as there is no negative values) [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] which has a sum of 21.

Example 2

Input

8
-1
2
4
-3
5
2
-5
2

Output

10

Explanation: The subarray with the largest sum is [2, 4, -3, 5, 2] which has a sum of 10.
