Huffman-coding

Description

In computer science and information theory, a Huffman code is an optimal prefix code algorithm.

In this exercise, please use Huffman coding to encode a given data.

You should output the number of bits, denoted as B(T), to encode the data:

B(T)=∑f(c)dT(c),

where f(c) is the frequency of character c, and dT(c) is be the depth of character c's leaf in the tree T.

Input The first line is the number of characters n.

The following n lines, each line gives the character c and its frequency f(c).

Output Output a single number B(T).

Sample Input

5 0 5 1 4 2 6 3 2 4 3

Sample Output 45

Hint 0: 01 1: 00 2: 11 3: 100 4: 101
