1038. Recover the Smallest Number (30), 1038 smallest
Given a collection of number segments, you are supposed to recover the smallest number from them. for example, given {32,321,321 4, 0229, 87 }, we can recover your numbers such like 32-321-3214-0229-87 or 0229-32-87-321-3214 with respect to different orders of combinations of these segments, and the smallest number is 0229-321-3214-32-87.
Input Specification:
Each input file contains one test case. each case gives a positive integer N (<= 10000) followed by N number segments. each segment contains a non-negative integer of no more than 8 digits. all the numbers in a line are separated by a space.
Output Specification:
For each test case, print the smallest number in one line. Do not output leading zeros.
Sample Input:
5 32 321 3214 0229 87
Sample Output:
22932132143287
