Problem Statement

Snuke has one biscuit and zero Japanese yen (the currency) in his pocket.
He will perform the following operations exactly K times in total, in the order he likes:

Hit his pocket, which magically increases the number of biscuits by one.

Exchange A biscuits to 1 yen.

Exchange 1 yen to B biscuits.

Find the maximum possible number of biscuits in Snuke's pocket after K operations.

Constraints

1 \leq K,A,B \leq 10^9

K,A and B are integers.

Input

Input is given from Standard Input in the following format:

K A B

Output

Print the maximum possible number of biscuits in Snuke's pocket after K operations.

Sample Input 1

4 2 6

Sample Output 1

7

The number of biscuits in Snuke's pocket after K operations is maximized as follows:

Hit his pocket. Now he has 2 biscuits and 0 yen.

Exchange 2 biscuits to 1 yen. his pocket. Now he has 0 biscuits and 1 yen.

Hit his pocket. Now he has 1 biscuits and 1 yen.

Exchange 1 yen to 6 biscuits. his pocket. Now he has 7 biscuits and 0 yen.

Sample Input 2

7 3 4

Solution in Python (3.4.3) (judge verdict: Time Limit Exceeded)

s = input().split()
K = int(s[0])
A = int(s[1])
B = int(s[2])

bis = 1
money = 0

if float(B/A) > 2:
  change = 1
else:
  change = 0

for i in range(K):
  if change == 1:
    if bis >= A and i+1 < K:
      bis = bis - A
      money += 1
      continue
    if money >= 1:
      bis += B
      money -= 1
      continue
 
  bis = bis+1
 
print(bis)
