Problem Statement

Given are 1-digit positive integers a and b. Consider these two strings: the concatenation of b copies of the digit a, and the concatenation of a copies of the digit b. Which of these is lexicographically smaller?

Constraints

1 \leq a \leq 9

1 \leq b \leq 9

a and b are integers.

Input

Input is given from Standard Input in the following format:

a b

Output

Print the lexicographically smaller of the two strings. (If the two strings are equal, print one of them.)

Sample Input 1

4 3

Sample Output 1

3333

We have two strings 444 and 3333. Between them, 3333 is the lexicographically smaller.

Sample Input 2

7 7

Sample Output 2

7777777

Solution in Rust (1.15.1) (judge verdict: Accepted)

use std::io::Write;

#[allow(unused)]
macro_rules! debug {
    ($($format:tt)*) => (write!(std::io::stderr(), $($format)*).unwrap());
}
#[allow(unused)]
macro_rules! debugln {
    ($($format:tt)*) => (writeln!(std::io::stderr(), $($format)*).unwrap());
}

fn main() {
    let (n, m): (usize, usize) = {
        let mut s = String::new();
        std::io::stdin().read_line(&mut s).unwrap();
        let s = s.trim_right().to_owned();
        let mut ws = s.split_whitespace();
        let a = ws.next().unwrap().parse().unwrap();
        let b = ws.next().unwrap().parse().unwrap();
        (a, b)
    };

    let (larger, smaller) = if n < m { (m, n) } else { (n, m) };

    let mut s = String::new();
    for _ in 0..larger {
        s.push_str(&smaller.to_string());
    }

    println!("{}", s);
}
