题目描述

You are given an array aa . Some element of this array aia_{i} is a local minimum iff it is strictly less than both of its neighbours (that is, ai<ai1a_{i}<a_{i-1} and ai<ai+1a_{i}<a_{i+1} ). Also the element can be called local maximum iff it is strictly greater than its neighbours (that is, ai>ai1a_{i}>a_{i-1} and ai>ai+1a_{i}>a_{i+1} ). Since a1a_{1} and ana_{n} have only one neighbour each, they are neither local minima nor local maxima.

An element is called a local extremum iff it is either local maximum or local minimum. Your task is to calculate the number of local extrema in the given array.

输入格式

The first line contains one integer nn ( 1<=n<=10001<=n<=1000 ) — the number of elements in array aa .

The second line contains nn integers a1a_{1} , a2a_{2} , ..., ana_{n} ( 1<=ai<=10001<=a_{i}<=1000 ) — the elements of array aa .

输出格式

Print the number of local extrema in the given array.
