Score : 600 points
We have 3N cards arranged in a row from left to right, where each card has an integer between 1 and N (inclusive) written on it. The integer written on the i-th card from the left is A_i.
You will do the following operation N-1 times:
After these N-1 operations, if the integers written on the remaining three cards are all equal, you will gain 1 additional point.
Find the maximum number of points you can gain.
Input is given from Standard Input in the following format:
N A_1 A_2 \cdots A_{3N}
Print the maximum number of points you can gain.

Let us rearrange the five leftmost cards so that the integers written on the six cards will be 2\ 2\ 2\ 1\ 1\ 1 from left to right.
Then, remove the three leftmost cards, all of which have the same integer 2, gaining 1 point.
Now, the integers written on the remaining cards are 1\ 1\ 1.
Since these three cards have the same integer 1, we gain 1 more point.
In this way, we can gain 2 points - which is the maximum possible.
