On the table there are $N$ cards. Each card has an integer number written on it. Beto performs the following operation several times: he chooses two cards from the table, calculates the difference between the numbers written on them, writes the result on his notebook and removes those two cards from the table. He can perform this operation as many times as he wants, as long as there are at least two cards on the table. After this, Beto multiplies all the numbers that he wrote on his notebook.
