Problem Statement

There is an integer sequence A of length N whose values are unknown.

Given is an integer sequence B of length N-1 which is known to satisfy the following:

B_i \geq \max(A_i, A_{i+1})

Find the maximum possible sum of the elements of A.

Constraints

All values in input are integers.

2 \leq N \leq 100

0 \leq B_i \leq 10^5

Input

Input is given from Standard Input in the following format:

N
B_1 B_2 ... B_{N-1}

Output

Print the maximum possible sum of the elements of A.

Sample Input 1

3
2 5

Sample Output 1

9

A can be, for example, ( 2 , 1 , 5 ), ( -1 , -2 , -3 ), or ( 2 , 2 , 5 ). Among those candidates, A = ( 2 , 2 , 5 ) has the maximum possible sum.

#include <bits/stdc++.h>

using namespace std;

  vector<int> B(N-1);
  for(int j=0;j<N-1;++j){
    cin>>B[j];
  }
  int ans = 0;
  ans = ans+B[0]+B[N-2];
  for(int i=1;i<N-2;++i){
    if(B[i]<B[i+1]){
  ans += B[i];
    }else{
      ans += B[i+1];
    }
