JOI’s Walk
JOI’s Walk
JOI is taking a walk along a straight road. He alternates between the following two operations:
- Moving forward by 3 m
- Moving backward by 2 m
JOI starts at position 0. Given an integer X representing the number of operations performed, determine his final position.
The process can be formulated as follows:
$$\text{position} = 3 \times \lceil \frac{X}{2} \rceil - 2 \times \lfloor \frac{X}{2} \rfloor$$
Note that the 1st, 3rd, 5th ... moves are forward moves and the 2nd, 4th, 6th ... moves are backward moves.
inputFormat
The input consists of a single integer X (1 ≤ X ≤ 109) representing the number of operations.
outputFormat
Output a single integer representing JOI's final position after X operations.
