    The Coco-Cola Store

    Once upon a time, there is a special coco-cola store. If you return three empty bottles to the shop, youll get a full bottle of coco-cola to drink. If you have n empty bottles right in your hand, how many full bottles of coco-cola can you drink?

    Input
    There will be at most 10 test cases, each containing a single line with an integer n (1 n 100). The input terminates with n = 0, which should not be processed.

    Output
    For each test case, print the number of full bottles of coco-cola that you can drink.

    Sample Input
    3 10 81 0

    Sample Output
    1 5 40

    Spoiler Let me tell you how to drink 5 full bottles with 10 empty bottles: get 3 full bottles with 9 empty bottles, drink them to get 3 empty bottles, and again get a full bottle from them. Now you have 2 empty bottles. Borrow another empty bottle from the shop, then get another full bottle. Drink it, and nally return this empty bottle to the shop!
