Alice and Bob are playing a turn-based game on a field, with two lanes of flowers between them. There are x
flowers in the first lane between Alice and Bob, and y
flowers in the second lane between them.
The game proceeds as follows:
Given two integers, n
and m
, the task is to compute the number of possible pairs (x, y)
that satisfy the conditions:
x
in the first lane must be in the range [1,n]
.y
in the second lane must be in the range [1,m]
.Return the number of possible pairs (x, y)
that satisfy the conditions mentioned in the statement.
Example 1:
Input: n = 3, m = 2 Output: 3 Explanation: The following pairs satisfy conditions described in the statement: (1,2), (3,2), (2,1).
Example 2:
Input: n = 1, m = 1 Output: 0 Explanation: No pairs satisfy the conditions described in the statement.
Constraints:
1 <= n, m <= 105
