Problem Statement

Rearrange the barcodes so that no two adjacent barcodes are equal. You may return any answer, and it is guaranteed an answer exists.

Examples

Example 1
Input: barcodes = [1,1,1,2,2,2]
Output: [2,1,2,1,2,1]
Example 2
Input: barcodes = [1,1,1,1,2,2,3,3]
Output: [1,3,1,3,1,2,1,2]

Constraints

1 <= barcodes.length <= 10000
1 <= barcodes[i] <= 10000
