In this problem your task is to reduce a given number 'N' to a non-positive number in as little moves as possible. The moves allowed are : Given an integer 'N' you can subtract one of its factors (excluding 'N' itself) from 'N' and continue the same process with the resulting number until you reach a non-positive number. Note that there is a special case when N=1, you can subtract '1' to reach 0.
