Problem Statement

In K-city, there are n streets running east-west, and m streets running north-south. Each street running east-west and each street running north-south cross each other. We will call the smallest area that is surrounded by four streets a block. How many blocks there are in K-city?

Constraints

2 ≤ n, m ≤ 100

Input

Input is given from Standard Input in the following format:

n m

Output

Print the number of blocks in K-city.

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


use std::io::*;
use std::str::FromStr;

pub fn read<T: FromStr>() -> T {
  let stdin = stdin();
  let stdin = stdin.lock();
  let token: String = stdin
    .bytes()
    .map(|c| c.expect("failed to read char") as char)
    .skip_while(|c| c.is_whitespace())
    .take_while(|c| !c.is_whitespace())
    .collect();
  token.parse().ok().expect("failed to parse token")
}

use std::cmp::{max, min};
use std::collections::HashMap;

fn main() {
  let a = read::<i64>();
  let b = read::<i64>();

  println!("{}", (a - 1) * (b - 1));
}
