Counting the Ways


Problem Statement :


Little Walter likes playing with his toy scales. He has N types of weights. The ith weight type has weight ai. There are infinitely many weights of each type.

Recently, Walter defined a function, F(X), denoting the number of different ways to combine several weights so their total weight is equal to X. Ways are considered to be different if there is a type which has a different number of weights used in these two ways.

For example, if there are  types of weights with corresonding weights 1, 1, and 2, then there are 4 ways to get a total weight of 2:

1.Use 2 weights of type 1.
2.Use 2 weights of type 2.
3.Use 1 weight of type 1 and 1 weight of type 2.
4.Use 1 weight of type 3.
Given N, L, R, and a1,a2,...,aN, can you find the value of F(L)+F(L+1)+...+F(R)?

Input Format

The first line contains a single integer, N, denoting the number of types of weights.
The second line contains N space-separated integers describing the values of a1,a2,...,aN, respectively
The third line contains two space-separated integers denoting the respective values of L and R.

Constraints
1 <= N <= 10
0 < ai <= 10^5
a1*a2*...*aN <= 10^5
1 <= L <= R <=10^17
