Description

You are given a tree consisting of $n$ nodes.
A matching is a set of edges where each node is an endpoint of at most one edge. What is the maximum number of edges in a matching?

Input

The first input line contains an integer $n$: the number of nodes. The nodes are numbered $1,2,\ldots,n$.
Then there are $n-1$ lines describing the edges. Each line contains two integers $a$ and $b$: there is an edge between nodes $a$ and $b$.

Output

Print one integer: the maximum number of pairs.

Constraints

$1≤n≤2⋅10^5$
$1 \le a,b \le n$

Sample 1 Input
