PROBLEM:
Chef considers a permutation P of \{1, 2, 3, \dots, N\} End Sorted if and only if P_1 = 1 and P_N = N.
Chef is given a permutation P.
In one operation Chef can choose any index i \ (1 \leq i \leq N-1) and swap P_i and P_{i+1}. Determine the minimum number of operations required by Chef to make the permutation P End Sorted.
Note: An array P is said to be a permutation of \{1, 2, 3, \dots, N\} if P contains each element of \{1, 2, 3, \dots, N\} exactly once.
EXPLANATION:
Let id_1 be the position of 1 in the permutation and id_N be the position of N in the permutation. We want 1 at position 1 and N at position N in the permutation. If id_1 is smaller than id_N we will have to make at least id_1-1 swaps to get 1 at position 1 and N-id_N swaps to get N at position N in the permutation. But if id_1>id_n we will have to do id_1-1 swaps to get 1 at position 1 in the permutation. One of these swaps, swaps N and 1 hence id_N is increased by 1. Therefore the answer in this case is id_1-1+N-(id_N+1).
TIME COMPLEXITY:
O(N) for each test case.
