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

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

use std::io::Read;

fn run() {
    let mut s = String::new();
    std::io::stdin().read_to_string(&mut s).unwrap();
    let mut it = s.trim().split_whitespace();
    it.next();
    let mut a = vec![];
    for c in it.next().unwrap().chars() {
        match a.last() {
            Some(&x) if c == x => (),
            _ => a.push(c),
        }
    }
    println!("{}", a.len());
}

fn main() {
    run();
}
