/*
Challenge 245
Task 2: Largest of Three
Submitted by: Mohammad S Anwar
You are given an array of integers >= 0.
Write a script to return the largest number formed by concatenating some of
the given integers in any order which is also multiple of 3. Return -1 if
none found.
Example 1
Input: @ints = (8, 1, 9)
Output: 981
981 % 3 == 0
Example 2
Input: @ints = (8, 6, 7, 1, 0)
Output: 8760
Example 3
Input: @ints = (1)
Output: -1
