Bessie has found herself in possession of an NN-unit long strip of canvas (1≤N≤1061≤N≤106), and she intends to paint it.
However, she has been unable to acquire paint brushes. In their place she has MM rubber stamps of different colors (1≤M≤1061≤M≤106), each stamp KK units wide (1≤K≤1061≤K≤106).
Astounded by the possibilities that lie before her, she wishes to know exactly how many different paintings she could conceivably create, by stamping her stamps in some order on the canvas.
To use a stamp, it must first be aligned with exactly KK neighboring units on the canvas. The stamp cannot extend beyond the ends of the canvas, nor can it cover fractions of units.
Once placed, the stamp paints the KK covered units with its color. Any given stamp may be used multiple times, once, or even never at all. But by the time Bessie is finished, every unit of canvas must have been painted at least once.
Help Bessie find the number of different paintings that she could paint, modulo 109+7109+7. Two paintings that look identical but were painted by different sequences of stamping operations are counted as the same.
For at least 75% of the input cases, N,K≤103N,K≤103.
The first and only line of input has three integers, NN, MM, and KK. It is guaranteed that K≤NK≤N.
A single integer: the number of possible paintings, modulo 109+7109+7.

If the two stamps have colors A and B, the possible paintings are AAA, AAB, ABB, BAA, BBA, and BBB.
