const fs = require('fs');

process.stdin.resume();
process.stdin.setEncoding('utf-8');

let inputString = '';
let currentLine = 0;

process.stdin.on('data', inputStdin => {
    inputString += inputStdin;
});

process.stdin.on('end', _ => {
    inputString = inputString.replace(/\s*$/, '')
        .split('\n')
        .map(str => str.replace(/\s*$/, ''));

    main();
});

function readLine() {
    return inputString[currentLine++];
}

    const v1 = parseInt(x1V1X2V2[1], 10);

    const x2 = parseInt(x1V1X2V2[2], 10);

    const v2 = parseInt(x1V1X2V2[3], 10);
