Problem Statement

You are given a string S consisting of a,b and c. Find the number of strings that can be possibly obtained by repeatedly performing the following operation zero or more times, modulo 998244353:

Choose an integer i such that 1\leq i\leq |S|-1 and the i-th and (i+1)-th characters in S are different. Replace each of the i-th and (i+1)-th characters in S with the character that differs from both of them (among a, b and c).

Constraints

2 \leq |S| \leq 2 × 10^5

S consists of a, b and c.

Input

Input is given from Standard Input in the following format:
