A lot of frogs want to cross a river. A river is w units width, but frogs can only jump l units long, where l<w. Frogs can also jump on lengths shorter than l
. but can't jump longer. Hopefully, there are some stones in the river to help them.
The stones are located at integer distances from the banks. There are ai
stones at the distance of iunits from the bank the frogs are currently at. Each stone can only be used once by one frog, after that it drowns in the water.
What is the maximum number of frogs that can cross the river, given that then can only jump on the stones?
The first line contains two integers w
) — the width of the river and the maximum length of a frog's jump.
The second line contains w−1
integers a1,a2,…,aw−1 ( 0≤ai≤104 ), where ai is the number of stones at the distance ifrom the bank the frogs are currently at.
Print a single integer — the maximum number of frogs that can cross the river.

In the first sample two frogs can use the different stones at the distance 5
.
In the second sample although there are two stones at the distance 5
, that does not help. The three paths are: 0→3→6→9→10 , 0→2→5→8→10 , 0→1→4→7→10Solution: Method 1: Divide the answer, then use the prefix and check
Method 2: Maximum flow minimum cut theorem, it must be to delete a continuous segment, which is the minimum cut. Finding the minimum cut is the answer.
