Problem Statement

There are N slimes lining up from left to right. The colors of these slimes will be given as a string S of length N consisting of lowercase English letters. The i-th slime from the left has the color that corresponds to the i-th character of S.

Adjacent slimes with the same color will fuse into one larger slime without changing the color. If there were a slime adjacent to this group of slimes before fusion, that slime is now adjacent to the new larger slime.

Ultimately, how many slimes will be there?

Constraints

1 \leq N \leq 10^5

|S| = N

S consists of lowercase English letters.

Input

Input is given from Standard Input in the following format:

N
S

Output

Print the final number of slimes.

Sample Input 1

10
aabbbbaaca

Sample Output 1

5

Ultimately, these slimes will fuse into abaca.

Sample Input 2

5
aaaaa

Sample Output 2

1

All the slimes will fuse into one.

Sample Input 3

20
xxzaffeeeeddfkkkkllq

Sample Output 3

10

Solution in Rust (1.15.1) (judge verdict: Accepted)

use std::io::*;
use std::str::FromStr;

fn main() {
    let cin = stdin();
    let cin = cin.lock();
    let mut sc = Scanner::new(cin);

    let _: usize = sc.next();
    let s: String = sc.next();

    let mut cnt: usize = 0;
    let mut prev = '$';
    for c in s.chars() {
        if c != prev {
            cnt += 1;
        }
        prev = c;
    }

    println!("{}", cnt);
}
