leaves
One beautiful autumn day
Radu and Mars noticed that the garden alley where they usually spend time is
rather full of leaves. They decided to gather all the leaves in exactly
K piles. The alley is a straight line and they established a coordinate
system on the alley, with the origine at the beginning of the alley.
There are N leaves of various
weights on the alley, all lined up, and the distance between each consecutive
leaves is 1. More precisely the
first leaf is at coordinate 1,
the second at coordinate 2, ...
, the N-th at coordinate N.
Initially the two guys are at coordinate N.
The leaf gathering operation takes place as Radu and Mars leave the garden,
so the leaves can only be moved to the left. The cost of moving a leaf
is equal to its weight times the distance it is moved. Obviously one of the
K piles will be at coordinate
1, but the rest can be anywhere.
Task
Find out the total minimum cost of gathering the N leaves in exactly K piles.
Input Data
File leaves.in contains on the first line two positive integers, N and K, separated by a space, having the significance given above. The following N lines contain N positive integers representing the weights of the leaves (line i+1 contains the weight of the leaf located at coordinate i).
Output Data
Output file leaves.out will contain a single line on which the minimum cost for gathering all the leaves in exactly K piles will be written.

It would be best to form the 2 piles in points 1 and 4. |
