Permutation p is an ordered set of integers p 1, p 2, …, p n, consisting of n distinct positive integers not larger than n. We’ll denote as n the length of permutation p 1, p 2, …, p n.
Your task is to find such permutation p of length n, that the group of numbers |p 1 - p 2|, |p 2 - p 3|, …, |p n - 1 - p n| has exactly k distinct elements.
Input
The single line of the input contains two space-separated positive integers n, k (1 ≤ k < n ≤ 105).
Output
Print n integers forming the permutation. If there are multiple answers, print any of them.
Examples
input
3 2
output
1 3 2
input
3 1
output
1 2 3
input
5 2
output
1 3 2 4 5
Note
By |x| we denote the absolute value of number x.
