Find the number of the possible ways to paint the balls.

Sample Input 1

2 2

Sample Output 1

2

We will denote the colors by $0$ and $1$. There are two possible ways: we can either paint the left ball in color $0$ and the right ball in color $1$, or paint the left in color $1$ and the right in color $0$.


Sample Input 2

1 10

Sample Output 2

10

Since there is only one ball, we can use any of the ten colors to paint it. Thus, the answer is ten.
