Problem Description

Recently Rikka falls in love with an old but interesting game -- 24 points. She wants to become a master of this game, so she asks Yuta to give her some problems to practice.

Quickly, Rikka solved almost all of the problems but the remained one is really difficult:

In this problem, you need to write a program which can get 24 points with

n numbers, which are all equal to

Input

There are no more then 100 testcases and there are no more then 5 testcases with

n≥100. Each testcase contains only one integer

n (1≤n≤105)

Output

For each testcase:

If there is not any way to get 24 points, print a single line with -1.

Otherwise, let

A be an array with

2n−1 numbers and at firsrt

Ai=n (1≤i≤n). You need to print

n−1 lines and the

ith line contains one integer

a, one char

b and then one integer c, where

1≤a,c<n+i and

b is "+","-","*" or "/". This line means that you let

Aa and

Ac do the operation

b and store the answer into

An+i.

If your answer satisfies the following rule, we think your answer is right:

1.

A2n−1=24

2. Each position of the array

A is used at most one tine.

3. The absolute value of the numerator and denominator of each element in array

A is no more than

109

Sample Input

Sample Output

1 * 2
5 + 3
6 + 4

解题：
如此之大的数据量，搜索是肯定不行。但还是被题目那句大于100的数据不会超过5组给蒙了一下。队友之前想着能不能从24往前搜，实则也是不行的。

由于根本不知道前面到底有什么数。又该相应如何的操作。看了题解后，恍然大悟。就应该去构造。

枚举n比較小的情况，然后当n大于等于14时，能够去凑((4*n)/n)*((6*n)/n),尽管是12个n，可是仍要从14，開始，由于多余的n须要通过一次减法，多次乘法消去。最后再加上之前算出的24就可以。

#include <iostream>
#include <cstdio>
#include <cmath>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
	int n,tmp;
	while(~scanf("%d",&n))
	{
	//	printf("%d:
",n);

			printf("-1

6 + 4
