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)

fn read_stdin() -> String {
    use std::io::Read;
    let mut input = String::new();
    std::io::stdin().read_to_string(&mut input).unwrap();
    input
}

fn scan<'a, I: Iterator<Item = &'a str>, T: std::str::FromStr>(tokens: &mut I) -> T {
    tokens.next().unwrap().parse().ok().unwrap()
}

fn main() {
    let input = read_stdin();
    let tokens = &mut input.split_whitespace();
    let a: usize = scan(tokens);
    let b: usize = scan(tokens);
    for _ in 0..std::cmp::max(a, b) {
        print!("{}", std::cmp::min(a, b));
    }
    println!("");
}
