print n

print len(str(n))


l =  str(n)

print l[990:995]

i = 0
m = 1

while ( i <= 995):
        l1 = l[i:i+5]
        print l1
        m1 = 1
        for e in l1:
                m1 =  m1 * int(e)

        if ( m1 > m ):
             m = m1
        
        i = i + 1


print "great prod is ", m
