Problem Statement

2N players are running a competitive table tennis training on N tables numbered from 1 to N.

The training consists of rounds.
In each round, the players form N pairs, one pair per table.
In each pair, competitors play a match against each other.
As a result, one of them wins and the other one loses.

The winner of the match on table X plays on table X-1 in the next round,
except for the winner of the match on table 1 who stays at table 1.

Similarly, the loser of the match on table X plays on table X+1 in the next round,
except for the loser of the match on table N who stays at table N.

Two friends are playing their first round matches on distinct tables A and B.
Let's assume that the friends are strong enough to win or lose any match at will.
What is the smallest number of rounds after which the friends can get to play a match against each other?

Constraints

2 \leq N \leq 10^{18}

1 \leq A < B \leq N

All input values are integers.

Input

Input is given from Standard Input in the following format:

N A B

Output

Print the smallest number of rounds after which the friends can get to play a match against each other.

Sample Input 1

5 2 4

Sample Output 1

1

If the first friend loses their match and the second friend wins their match, they will both move to table 3 and play each other in the next round.

Sample Input 2

5 2 3

Sample Output 2

2

If both friends win two matches in a row, they will both move to table 1.

Solution in Ruby (2.3.3) (judge verdict: Wrong Answer)

def get_i() #空白区切の入力を数値(整数)の配列で返す
  return gets.chomp.split(" ").map(&:to_i)
end
def get_f() #空白区切の入力を数値(実数)の配列で返す
  return gets.chomp.split(" ").map(&:to_f)
end
def get() #空白区切の入力を文字列の配列で返す
  return gets.chomp.split(" ")
end
def get_nsp() #入力されたものを一文字ずつに区切った文字列の配列で返す
  return gets.chomp.split("")
end
def yn_judge(bool,y="Yes",n="No") #boolに真偽を投げることで、trueならy、falseならnの値を出力する
  return bool ? y : n 
end
def array(size1,init=nil,size2=-1) #size2に二次元配列時の最初の要素数、size1に次の配列の大きさ、initに初期値を投げることでその配列を返す
  if size2==-1
    return Array.new(size1){init}
  else
    return Array.new(size2){Array.new(size1){init}}
  end
end

N,A,B=get_i
if (B-A).even?
    puts (B-A)/2
else
  if B-1<N-A
    puts B-1
  else
    puts N-A
  end
