Problem Statement

Snuke can change a string t of length N into a string t' of length N - 1 under the following rule:

For each i (1 ≤ i ≤ N - 1), the i-th character of t' must be either the i-th or (i + 1)-th character of t.

There is a string s consisting of lowercase English letters.
Snuke's objective is to apply the above operation to s repeatedly so that all the characters in s are the same.
Find the minimum necessary number of operations.

Constraints

1 ≤ |s| ≤ 100

s consists of lowercase English letters.

Input

Input is given from Standard Input in the following format:

s

Output

Print the minimum necessary number of operations to achieve the objective.

Sample Input 1

serval

Sample Output 1

3

One solution is: serval → srvvl → svvv → vvv.

Sample Input 2

jackal

Sample Output 2

2

One solution is: jackal → aacaa → aaaa.

Sample Input 3

zzz

Sample Output 3

0

All the characters in s are the same from the beginning.

Sample Input 4

whbrjpjyhsrywlqjxdbrbaomnw

Sample Output 4

8

In 8 operations, he can change s to rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Solution in Ruby (2.3.3) (judge verdict: Accepted)

s = gets.chomp.split("")

def get_steps(s, r)
  cnt = 0
  max_step = 0
  s.each do |w|
    if w.eql? r
      max_step = cnt if max_step < cnt
      cnt = 0
    else
      cnt += 1
    end
  end
  max_step = cnt if max_step < cnt
  max_step
end

min_step = 10000
s.each do |w|
  step = get_steps(s, w)
  min_step = step if step < min_step
end

puts min_step
