Problem
Yunyeong loves multiples of 3. As a hobby, he writes every natural number as a sum of three natural numbers that are multiples of 3. One day he wondered how many ways there are to write a given number as such a sum. But since this is his final semester, he has grown too lazy to do the calculation himself. So he asked you to do it.
That is, given a natural number n that is a multiple of 3, print the number of ways to write n as a sum of three natural numbers that are multiples of 3. The order of the terms matters: 12 = 3 + 6 + 3 and 12 = 3 + 3 + 6 count as different ways.
Input
A natural number n that is a multiple of 3 is given. (3 ≤ n ≤ 3000)
Output
Print the number of ways to decompose the natural number n.
