#P17381. [PacNW 2025] Closest Equal Pair

[PacNW 2025] Closest Equal Pair

Problem Description

Shima has opened an art museum! Its best-known exhibit contains nn nanoblobs of various colors arranged in a row. The gap between every pair of adjacent nanoblobs is exactly 10910^9 nanometers, or 11 meter.

One day, museum reviewer Jerry visits the exhibit. He begins by taking pictures under the following rules:

  • If two nanoblobs appear in a picture, every nanoblob between them also appears in that picture.

  • No two pictures contain exactly the same collection of nanoblobs.

  • Jerry cannot take another picture without violating one of the previous two rules.

Jerry then scores every picture. If all nanoblobs in a picture have distinct colors, its score is 00. Otherwise, he considers every pair of equally colored nanoblobs, finds the closest such pair, and assigns the picture a score equal to their distance in meters.

Compute the sum of the scores of all Jerry's pictures.

Input Format

The first line contains an integer nn (1n41051\le n\le4\cdot10^5), the number of nanoblobs.

The second line contains nn integers a1,a2,,ana_1,a_2,\ldots,a_n (1ain1\le a_i\le n), the colors of the nanoblobs from left to right.

Output Format

Output the sum of the scores of all pictures.
