Problem Statement

There are N balls placed in a row.
AtCoDeer the deer is painting each of these in one of the K colors of his paint cans.
For aesthetic reasons, any two adjacent balls must be painted in different colors.

Find the number of the possible ways to paint the balls.

Constraints

1≦N≦1000

2≦K≦1000

The correct answer is at most 2^{31}-1.

Input

The input is given from Standard Input in the following format:

N K

Output

Print the number of the possible ways to paint the balls.

Sample Input 1

2 2

Sample Output 1

2

We will denote the colors by 0 and 1. There are two possible ways: we can either paint the left ball in color 0 and the right ball in color 1, or paint the left in color 1 and the right in color 0.

Sample Input 2

1 10

Sample Output 2

10

Since there is only one ball, we can use any of the ten colors to paint it. Thus, the answer is ten.

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

use std::io::prelude::*;

fn input<T>() -> T
where
    T: std::str::FromStr,
{
    let stdin = std::io::stdin();
    let token: String = stdin
        .lock()
        .bytes()
        .map(|c| c.unwrap() as char)
        .skip_while(|c| c.is_whitespace())
        .take_while(|c| !c.is_whitespace())
        .collect();
    token.parse().ok().unwrap()
}

fn main() {
    let n: i32 = input();
    let k: i32 = input();

    let mut ans = k;
    for _ in 1..n {
        ans *= k - 1;
    }
    println!("{}", ans);
}
