#P3244. Difference between Triplets
Difference between Triplets
Description
For every pair of triplets, Ta = (Ia, Ja, Ka) and Tb = (Ib, Jb, Kb), we define the difference value between Ta and Tb as follows:
D(Ta, Tb) = max {Ia − Ib, Ja − Jb, Ka − Kb} − min {Ia − Ib, Ja − Jb, Ka − Kb}
Now you are given N triplets, could you write a program to calculate the sum of the difference values between every unordered pair of triplets?Input
The input consists of several test cases.
Each test case begins with a line containing an integer N, denotes the number of triplets. Assume that we number the triplets as T1, T2, ... , TN. Then, there are following N lines, each line contains three integers, giving the elements of each triplet.
A case with N = 0 indicates the end of the input.
Output
For each case, output a line with the sum of difference values between every unordered pair of triplets.

Hint
Case 1: D(T1,T2)=4
Case 2: D(T1,T2)+D(T1,T3)+D(T2,T3)=8+8+4=20
You can assume that N, the number of triplets in each case, will not exceed 200,000 and the elements in triplets fit into [-106,106].
The size of the input will not exceed 5 MB.
