An addition chain for n is an integer sequence with the following four properties:

 

• a₀ = 1
• a_m = n
• a₀12<...m-1m
• For each k ( ) there exist two (not neccessarily different) integers i and j ( ) with a_k =a_i +a_j

You are given an integer n. Your job is to construct an addition chain for n with minimal length.

 

Input Specification

The input file will contain one or more test cases. Each test case consists of one line containing one integer n ( ). Input is terminated by a value of zero (0) for n.

Output Specification

For each test case, print one line containing the minimal length.

 

Hint: The problem is a little time-critical, so use proper break conditions where necessary to reduce the search space.
