Description

When Xellos was doing a practice course in university, he once had to measure the intensity of an effect that slowly approached equilibrium. A good way to determine the equilibrium intensity would be choosing a sufficiently large number of consecutive data points that seems as constant as possible and taking their average. Of course, with the usual sizes of data, it‘s nothing challenging — but why not make a similar programming contest problem while we‘re at it?

You‘re given a sequence of n data points a1, ..., an. There aren‘t any big jumps between consecutive data points — for each 1 ≤ i < n, it‘s guaranteed that |ai + 1 - ai| ≤ 1.

A range [l, r] of data points is said to be almost constant if the difference between the largest and the smallest value in that range is at most 1. Formally, let M be the maximum and m the minimum value of ai for l ≤ i ≤ r; the range [l, r] is almost constant if M - m ≤ 1.

Find the length of the longest almost constant range.

Input

The first line of the input contains a single integer n (2 ≤ n ≤ 100 000) — the number of data points.

The second line contains n integers a1, a2, ..., an (1 ≤ ai ≤ 100 000).

Output

Print a single number — the maximum length of an almost constant range of the given sequence.

Hint

In the first sample, the longest almost constant range is [2, 5]; its length (the number of data points in it) is 4.

In the second sample, there are three almost constant ranges of length 4: [1, 4], [6, 9] and [7, 10]; the only almost constant range of the maximum length 5 is [6, 10].

思路:

一開始各種想LIS,但是CF再次證明了前兩道題目全是想法題(雖然想法並不比演算法簡單= =~)

首先是要在一整個數段中找到其中的一個子數段,在它的M-m<=1的情況下使其len最大

那麼這裡就涉及到兩個思維的關鍵點:

(1)不同狀態之間的轉換:為每個狀態設定一個M和m,對於每一個後進入的點判斷是否可以繼續維持前一狀態,如果可以就count++

(2)要意識到新狀態的開始點並不一定是舊狀態的結束點:可能有一點使得原來的狀態不能夠持續下去而結束了,但是並不意味著這一點就是新狀態的開始點,在維持舊狀態的過程中可能就出現了新狀態的開始點,這點主要到了以後只要根據不同的情況去找那個開始點就OK了
