The n-th greedy power of x, when 0.5 < x < 1, is the smallest integer exponent a(n) that does not cause the power series sum_{k=1..n} x^a(k) to exceed unity.

Examples

			a(3)=8 since (1/sqrt(e)) + (1/sqrt(e))^2 + (1/sqrt(e))^8 < 1 and (1/sqrt(e)) + (1/sqrt(e))^2 + (1/sqrt(e))^7 > 1; the power 7 makes the sum > 1, so 8 is the 3rd greedy power of (1/sqrt(e)).

The n-th greedy power of x, when 0.5 < x < 1, is the smallest integer exponent a(n) that does not cause the power series Sum_{k=1..n} x^a(k) to exceed unity. A heuristic argument suggests that the limit of a(n)/n is m - Sum_{n>=m} log(1 + x^n)/log(x) = 2.909795625992782..., where x=exp(-gamma) and m=floor(log(1-x)/log(x))=1.

Examples

			a(3)=4 since exp(-gamma) + exp(-gamma)^2 + exp(-gamma)^4 < 1 and exp(-gamma) + exp(-gamma)^2 + exp(-gamma)^k > 1 for 2<k<4.
