Sorting a three-valued Sequence (sort of three values)

Description

Sorting is a very frequent computational task. Now consider sorting problems with up to three values. A practical example is when we give a winner of a competition the gold and silver bronze medal order. The possible values in this task are only three and 3. We put him in ascending order by means of an exchange. Write a program that calculates the minimum number of exchanges required in ascending order, given a sequence of numbers made up of a series of a.

Input

Line 1:n (1 <= N <=) Lines 2-n+1: One number per row, total N rows. (1.. 3)

Output

A total of one row, a number. Represents the minimum number of exchanges required to rank in ascending order.

Sample Input
9221333231
Sample Output
4

Exercises

First count the number of a[1, then determine how many non-1 elements of the former (1), and then find a to a[1]+a[2] how many 3 and a[1]+a[2] to n how many 2, two regions of 1 have and the first region of the non-1 element exchange. Finally, find the largest value in the latter two areas.
