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.

Solution in Python (3.4.3) (judge verdict: Wrong Answer)

n = int(input())

B_lst = list(map(int,input().split()))
A_lst = [0] * n

for i in range(n-1):
    if B_lst[i] > B_lst[i-1]:
        A_lst[i] = B_lst[i-1]
    else:
        A_lst[i] = B_lst[i]

    if i == n-2:
        A_lst[i+1] = B_lst[i]
        break

print(sum(A_lst))
