Problem type

Ren has recently created a website, Ternary Search, which he intends on turning into the premier platform for competitive programmers to talk about anything.

In order to facilitate conversation between different users, Ren is working on a new feature called "friends". The feature will allow two distinct users to be friends. Ren is working on a prototype of this feature right now, so at present, all users are friends with Ren, and these are the only friendships present on the platform.

Including Ren, there are N users on the platform. Ren eventually wants to track a metric which he calls the "lonely user" metric, which is a count of how many users have exactly one friend. With the prototype the way it is now, how many users are lonely users?
