Problem Statement
翻译中…
There is a stack of $N$ cards, each of which has a non-negative integer written on it. The integer written on the $i$-th card from the top is $A_i$.

Snuke will repeat the following operation until two cards remain:
翻译中…
- Choose three consecutive cards from the stack.
- Eat the middle card of the three.
- For each of the other two cards, replace the integer written on it by the sum of that integer and the integer written on the card eaten.
- Return the two cards to the original position in the stack, without swapping them.

3 1 4 2
Output #1
16
We can minimize the sum of the integers written on the last two cards remaining by doing as follows:
- Initially, the integers written on the cards are $3$, $1$, $4$, and $2$ from top to bottom.
- Choose the first, second, and third card from the top. Eat the second card with $1$ written on it, add $1$ to each of the other two cards, and return them to the original position in the stack. The integers written on the cards are now $4$, $5$, and $2$ from top to bottom.
- Choose the first, second, and third card from the top. Eat the second card with $5$ written on it, add $5$ to each of the other two cards, and return them to the original position in the stack. The integers written on the cards are now $9$ and $7$ from top to bottom.
- The sum of the integers written on the last two cards remaining is $16$.
