Description
How far can you make a stack of cards overhang a table?
If you have one card, you can create a maximum overhang of half a card length.
(We're assuming that the cards must be perpendicular to the table.)
With two cards you can make the top card overhang the bottom one by half a card length,
and the bottom one overhang the table by a third of a card length,
for a total maximum overhang of 1/2 + 1/3 = 5/6 card lengths.
In general you can make n cards overhang by 1/2 + 1/3 + 1/4 + ... + 1/(n + 1) card lengths,
where the top card overhangs the second by 1/2, the second overhangs tha third by 1/3,
the third overhangs the fourth by 1/4, etc.,
and the bottom card overhangs the table by 1/(n + 1). This is illustrated in the figure below.
Input
The input consists of one or more test cases,
followed by a line containing the number 0.00 that signals the end of the input.
Each test case is a single line containing a positive floating-point number c whose value is at least 0.01 and at most 5.20;
c will contain exactly three digits.
Output
For each test case,
output the minimum number of cards necessary to achieve an overhang of at least c card lengths.
Use the exact output format shown in the examples.

Sample Output
3 card(s)
61 card(s)
1 card(s)
273 card(s)
