Description
Taro and Jiro will play the following game against each other.
Initially, they are given a sequence $a = (a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_N)$. Until aa becomes empty, the two players perform the following operation alternately, starting from Taro:
Assuming that the two players play optimally, find the resulting value of $X - Y$.
Initially, they are given a sequence $a = (a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_N)$. Until aa becomes empty, the two players perform the following operation alternately, starting from Taro:
- Remove the element at the beginning or the end of $a$. The player earns $x$ points, where $x$ is the removed element.
Assuming that the two players play optimally, find the resulting value of $X - Y$.
Input
Input is given from Standard Input in the following format:
$N$
$a_1\ a_2\ \ldots\ a_N$
$N$
$a_1\ a_2\ \ldots\ a_N$
Output
Print the resulting value of $X - Y$, assuming that the two players play optimally.
Constraints
All values in input are integers.
$1 \leq N \leq 3000$
$1 \leq a_i \leq 10^9$
$1 \leq N \leq 3000$
$1 \leq a_i \leq 10^9$
Sample 1 Input

10 80 90 30
Sample 1 Output
10
The game proceeds as follows when the two players play optimally (the element being removed is written bold):
- Taro: (10, 80, 90, 30) → (10, 80, 90)
- Jiro: (10, 80, 90) → (10, 80)
- Taro: (10, 80) → (10)
- Jiro: (10) → ()
Sample 2 Input

10 100 10
Sample 2 Output
-80
The game proceeds, for example, as follows when the two players play optimally:
- Taro: (10, 100, 10) → (100, 10)
- Jiro: (100, 10) → (10)
- Taro: (10) → ()

The game proceeds, for example, as follows when the two players play optimally:
- Taro: (4, 2, 9, 7, 1, 5) → (4, 2, 9, 7, 1)
- Jiro: (4, 2, 9, 7, 1) → (2, 9, 7, 1)
- Taro: (2, 9, 7, 1) → (2, 9, 7)
- Jiro: (2, 9, 7) → (2, 9)
- Taro: (2, 9) → (2)
- Jiro: (2) → ()
