One day n friends gathered together to play "Mafia". During each round of the game some player must be the supervisor and other n - 1 people take part in the game. For each person we know in how many rounds he wants to be a player, not the supervisor: the i-th person wants to play ai rounds. What is the minimum number of rounds of the "Mafia" game they need to play to let each person play at least as many rounds as they want?

Input
The first line contains integer n (3 ≤ n ≤ 105). The second line contains n space-separated integers a1, a2, ..., an (1 ≤ ai ≤ 109) — the i-th number in the list is the number of rounds the i-th person wants to play.

Output
In a single line print a single integer — the minimum number of game rounds the friends need to let the i-th person play at least ai rounds.

Please, do not use the %lld specifier to read or write 64-bit integers in С++. It is preferred to use the cin, cout streams or the %I64d specifier.

Note
You don't need to know the rules of "Mafia" to solve this problem. If you're curious, it's a game Russia got from the Soviet times: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mafia_(party_game).
这题用了组合数学的表示方法，这个方法经常用而且很好用，其实就是设未知数。

设x[i]表示第i个人，做了多少次裁判，那么ans = sigma(x[i])

对于第i个人，它参赛了ans - x[i]次，那么需要

ans - x[1] >= a[1]

ans - x[2] >= a[2]

ans - x[3] >= a[3]

.....

ans - x
>= a

求和，得到(n - 1) * ans >= sum(a[i])

二分ans即可，

注意ans要大于等于max(a[i])
