Next Integer Permutation - Amazon Top Interview Questions


Problem Statement :


Given an integer n, return the next bigger permutation of its digits.

If n is already in its biggest permutation, rotate to the smallest permutation.

Constraints

n < 2 ** 31

Example 1

Input

n = 527

Output

572

Example 2

Input

n = 321

Output

123

Explanation

321 is already the biggest permutation so it rotates to the smallest.

Example 3

Input

n = 20

Output

2
