Bytelandian gold coins
Problem Statement :
In Byteland they have a very strange monetary system. Each Bytelandian gold coin has an integer number written on it. A coin n can be exchanged in a bank into three coins: n/2, n/3 and n/4. But these numbers are all rounded down (the banks have to make a profit). You can also sell Bytelandian coins for American dollars. The exchange rate is 1:1. But you can not buy Bytelandian coins. You have one gold coin. What is the maximum amount of American dollars you can get for it? Input The input will contain several test cases (not more than 10). Each testcase is a single line with a number n, 0 <= n <= 1 000 000 000. It is the number written on your coin. Output For each test case output a single line, containing the maximum amount of American dollars you can make. Example Input: 12 2 Output: 13 2 You can change 12 into 6, 4 and 3, and then change these into 6+4+3=13. If you try changing the coin 2 into 3 smaller coins, you will get 1, 0 and 0, and later you can get no more than 1 out of them. It is better just to change the 2 coin directly into 2.

// Points to rememeber:
- if a question is asked where you are given two condition one where you have to include
and one in which you have to exclude them use dp memoization (maximum in non-adjecent array)
- In a problem which has distance given by two point use graph and if we need to find the
element in between sort in the pair array for values instead of keys
- Use pascal's triangle to solve nCr problem.
- b^-1%m = b^m-2 (Fermat's little theorem). (nCr problem)
- if you have a^10 (use fast exponenetiation or fast factorial computation)
- xor adds if one of the two number are power of 2 and the other is less than it and
it subtracts if it is more. (8^7 == 15 but 8^9 == 1).
- even number with xor 1 adds and odd subtracts.
//String:
- total possible substring -> n * (n+1)/2, total permutations -> n!
- You can use Manacher’s algorithm to find and longest palindromic substirng
and also modify it to find count pallindromic substrings.
- you can also use dp (diagonal method tabulation) to count pallindromic substrings.

Find the Running Median
The median of a set of integers is the midpoint value of the data set for which an equal number of integers are less than and greater than the value. To find the median, you must first sort your set of integers in non-decreasing order, then: If your set contains an odd number of elements, the median is the middle element of the sorted sample. In the sorted set { 1, 2, 3 } , 2 is the median.
