Problem Statement

There is a tree with N vertices, numbered 1 through N.
The i-th edge in this tree connects Vertices A_i and B_i and has a length of C_i.

Joisino created a complete graph with N vertices.
The length of the edge connecting Vertices u and v in this graph, is equal to the shortest distance between Vertices u and v in the tree above.

Joisino would like to know the length of the longest Hamiltonian path (see Notes) in this complete graph.
Find the length of that path.

Notes

A Hamiltonian path in a graph is a path in the graph that visits each vertex exactly once.

Constraints

2 \leq N \leq 10^5

1 \leq A_i < B_i \leq N

The given graph is a tree.

1 \leq C_i \leq 10^8

All input values are integers.

Input

Input is given from Standard Input in the following format:

N
A_1 B_1 C_1
A_2 B_2 C_2
:
A_{N-1} B_{N-1} C_{N-1}

Output

Print the length of the longest Hamiltonian path in the complete graph created by Joisino.

Sample Input 1

5
1 2 5
3 4 7
2 3 3
2 5 2

Sample Output 1

38

The length of the Hamiltonian path 5 → 3 → 1 → 4 → 2 is 5+8+15+10=38. Since there is no Hamiltonian path with length 39 or greater in the graph, the answer is 38.

Sample Input 2

8
2 8 8
1 5 1
4 8 2
2 5 4
3 8 6
6 8 9
2 7 12

Sample Output 2

132
