You are the receptionist at a hotel which has 10 floors, numbered from 0 to 9 and each floor has 26 rooms named from ‘A’ to ‘Z’. Being a receptionist your task is to handle booking queries.

You get booking queries in the form of strings of size 3 where 1st character is ‘+’ means room is booked, or ‘-’ means room is freed. Second character represents the floor of the room i.e, ‘0’ to ‘9’. Third character represents the room name i.e, ‘A’ to ‘Z’.

On booking of each room you collect 1 coin from the customer. After the end of all the booking queries you have to count the number of coins you collected.

You may assume that the list describes a correct sequence of bookings in chronological order i.e., only free rooms can be booked, and only booked rooms can be freed.

For Example:-

Consider booking queries to be ["+1A", "+3E", "-1A", "+4F", "+1A", "-3E"]
+1A: Room A on the 1st floor is booked and you collected 1 coin.
+3E: Room E on the 3rd floor is booked and you collected 1 coin.
-1A: Room A on the 1st floor is freed.
+4F: Room F on the 4th floor is booked and you collected 1 coin.
+1A: Room A on the 1st floor is booked and you collected 1 coin.
-3E: Room E on the 3rd floor is freed.
So you collected 4 coins.

You are given an array 'arr' of length 'n', consisting of integers.

A subarray is a contiguous segment of an array. In other words, a subarray can be formed by removing 0 or more integers from the beginning and 0 or more integers from the end of an array.

Find the sum of the subarray (including empty subarray) having maximum sum among all subarrays.

The sum of an empty subarray is 0.

Example :

Input: 'arr' = [1, 2, 7, -4, 3, 2, -10, 9, 1]

Output: 11

Explanation: The subarray yielding the maximum sum is [1, 2, 7, -4, 3, 2].

You are given an array of strings ‘ARR’. You have to find out the second most repeated word in the array ‘ARR’. It is guaranteed every string occurs a unique number of times in the array. If there is only one unique string in the array, return an empty string.

Example:-

N = 5
S = [‘aaa’, ‘bbb’, ‘ccc’, ‘aaa’, ‘bbb’, ‘aaa’]

ANSWER:- The answer should be ‘bbb’ as it is repeated 2 times and is the second most repeated word in the array [after the word ‘aaa’ which is repeated 3 times].
