Problem Statement

In a flower bed, there are N flowers, numbered 1,2,......,N. Initially, the heights of all flowers are 0.
You are given a sequence h=\{h_1,h_2,h_3,......\} as input. You would like to change the height of Flower k to h_k for all k (1 \leq k \leq N), by repeating the following "watering" operation:

Specify integers l and r. Increase the height of Flower x by 1 for all x such that l \leq x \leq r.

Find the minimum number of watering operations required to satisfy the condition.

Constraints

1 \leq N \leq 100

0 \leq h_i \leq 100

All values in input are integers.

Input

Input is given from Standard Input in the following format:

N
h_1 h_2 h_3 ...... h_N

Output

Print the minimum number of watering operations required to satisfy the condition.

Sample Input 1

4
1 2 2 1

Sample Output 1

2

The minimum number of watering operations required is 2.
One way to achieve it is:

Perform the operation with (l,r)=(1,3).

Perform the operation with (l,r)=(2,4).

Sample Input 2

5
3 1 2 3 1

Sample Output 2

Sample Input 3

8
4 23 75 0 23 96 50 100

Sample Output 3

221

Solution in JavaScript (node.js v5.12) (judge verdict: Accepted)

"use strict";
function Main(input) {
    let lines = input.split("\n");
    let N = lines.shift() - 0;
    let h = lines.shift().split(/\s/).map((v) => v - 0);
    let ans = 0;
    let act = 0;
    for (let n = 0; n < N; n++) {
        if (act >= h[n]) act = h[n];
        else {
            ans += h[n] - act;
            act = h[n];
        }
    }
    console.log(ans);
}
Main(require("fs").readFileSync("/dev/stdin", "utf8"));
