You are given a positive integer k. Initially, you have an array nums = [1].

\n\n

You can perform any of the following operations on the array any number of times (possibly zero):

\n\n\n\n

Return the minimum number of operations required to make the sum of elements of the final array greater than or equal to k.

\n\n

 

\n

Example 1:

\n\n
\n

Input: k = 11

\n\n

Output: 5

\n\n

Explanation:

\n\n

We can do the following operations on the array nums = [1]:

\n\n\n\n

The sum of the final array is 4 + 4 + 4 = 12 which is greater than or equal to k = 11.
\nThe total number of operations performed is 3 + 2 = 5.

\n
\n\n

Example 2:

\n\n
\n

Input: k = 1

\n\n

Output: 0

\n\n

Explanation:

\n\n

The sum of the original array is already greater than or equal to 1, so no operations are needed.
