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.

Sample Input 2

2
3

Sample Output 2

<?php

fscanf(STDIN, "%d", $n);
$B = array_map('intval', explode(' ', trim(fgets(STDIN))));

$A = [];
$A[0] = $B[0];
for ($i = 1; $i < $n - 1; $i++) {
    $A[$i] = min($B[$i - 1], $B[$i]);
}
$A[$n - 1] = $B[$n - 2];

echo array_sum($A);
