Okay, this is actually hard. When j = 1, the answer is clearly the biggest element in the array and after that all the work on the
solution is base on this one. Consider the biggest element (pick any) i, there are two cases: i is taken or i - 1 and i + 1 is taken (it can be
easily proven). If j > 1, take the biggest element and sum it up to the answer. After that, we ease i - 1 and i + 1 from our set, set the ith element
to a[i - 1] + a[i + 1] - a[i] (if we add new value of a[i] to the answer then it will be the same as we take i - 1 and i + 1) and transform the current
problem into a new problem with j = j - 1 and the elements might be negative (it doesn't matter though).
