Problem type

At the Nova Theatre, the balcony seats can be seen as a grid with M rows and N columns. The plays are popular and K people have bought tickets to see the next one. However, these tickets do not have set seats yet. Administration has decided to start selling booster cushions and will be rearranging people's seats to maximize their profit. In particular, an audience member can only see the play if their height is strictly more than the person in the seat directly in front. Otherwise, they will purchase cushions until they can. Each cushion increases their height by exactly 1 centimeter. Note that an audience member who is in the front row or not seated directly behind anyone has no need for cushions. Given the heights of the K people in centimeters, find the maximum number of cushions that can be sold.

Constraints

1 \le K \le 200\,000
K \le M \times N
The heights in centimeters are guaranteed to be integers from 50 to 250.

Subtask 1 [30%]

1 \le M \le 200\,000
N=1

Subtask 2 [30%]

1 \le M, N \le 1\,000

Subtask 3 [40%]

1 \le M, N \le 200\,000
