Codeforces Beta Round #24 solutions
By Egor, 14 years ago, translation, In English

Task A

This is pretty simple task - we have cycle and must direct all edges on it in one of 2 directions. We need to calculate cost of both orientation and print smallest of them.
There is a small trick - we can calculate cost of only one orientation and then cost of the other will be sum of costs of all edges minus cost of first orientation.
