<p>You are playing a solitaire game with <strong>three piles</strong> of stones of sizes <code>a</code>, <code>b</code>, and <code>c</code> respectively. Each turn you choose two <strong>different non-empty </strong>piles, take one stone from each, and add <code>1</code> point to your score. The game stops when there are <strong>fewer than two non-empty</strong> piles (meaning there are no more available moves).</p> <p>Given three integers <code>a</code>, <code>b</code>, and <code>c</code>, return <em>the</em> <strong><em>maximum</em> </strong><em><strong>score</strong> you can get.</em></p> <p> </p> <p><strong class="example">Example 1:</strong></p> <pre> <strong>Input:</strong> a = 2, b = 4, c = 6 <strong>Output:</strong> 6 <strong>Explanation:</strong> The starting state is (2, 4, 6). One optimal set of moves is: - Take from 1st and 3rd piles, state is now (1, 4, 5) - Take from 1st and 3rd piles, state is now (0, 4, 4) - Take from 2nd and 3rd piles, state is now (0, 3, 3) - Take from 2nd and 3rd piles, state is now (0, 2, 2) - Take from 2nd and 3rd piles, state is now (0, 1, 1) - Take from 2nd and 3rd piles, state is now (0, 0, 0) There are fewer than two non-empty piles, so the game ends. Total: 6 points. </pre> <p><strong class="example">Example 2:</strong></p> <pre> <strong>Input:</strong> a = 4, b = 4, c = 6 <strong>Output:</strong> 7 <strong>Explanation:</strong> The starting state is (4, 4, 6).

After that, there are fewer than two non-empty piles, so the game ends. </pre> <p> </p> <p><strong>Constraints:</strong></p> <ul> <li><code>1 <= a, b, c <= 10<sup>5</sup></code></li> </ul>
