You are given the arrival and departure times of N trains at a railway station in a day. You need to find the minimum of platforms required for the railway station such that no train waits i.e No train should wait for the platform to be clear or free.

You are working as a cab driver. Your car moves in a straight line and moves toward the forward direction only. Initially, you have ‘C’ empty seats for the passengers.

Now, you are given ‘N’ number of trips that you have to make. In each trip, you are given three integers ‘Num’, ‘pickPoint’, and ‘dropPoint’ denoting that there are ‘Num’ numbers of passengers standing at 'pickpoint’ and you have to drop them at 'droppoint’.

Your task is to find if it is possible to pick up and drop off all the passengers of all the given trips or not.

Note :

You have a special type of car containing any number of seats.

You have been given an array 'PRICES' consisting of 'N' integers where PRICES[i] denotes the price of a given stock on the i-th day. You are also given an integer 'K' denoting the number of possible transactions you can make.

Your task is to find the maximum profit in at most K transactions. A valid transaction involves buying a stock and then selling it.

Note

You can’t engage in multiple transactions simultaneously, i.e. you must sell the stock before rebuying it.

For Example

Input: N = 6 , PRICES = [3, 2, 6, 5, 0, 3] and K = 2.
Output: 7

Explanation : The optimal way to get maximum profit is to buy the stock on day 2(price = 2) and sell it on day 3(price = 6) and rebuy it on day 5(price = 0) and sell it on day 6(price = 3). The maximum profit will be (6 - 2) + (3 - 0) = 7.
