You are given two binary strings $a$ and $b$ of the same length. You can perform the following two operations on the string $a$:

  Swap any two bits at indices $i$ and $j$ respectively ($1 \le i, j \le n$), the cost of this operation is $|i - j|$, that is, the absolute difference between $i$ and $j$.  Select any arbitrary index $i$ ($1 \le i \le n$) and flip (change $0$ to $1$ or $1$ to $0$) the bit at this index. The cost of this operation is $1$. 

Find the minimum cost to make the string $a$ equal to $b$. It is not allowed to modify string $b$.


-----Input-----

The first line contains a single integer $n$ ($1 \le n \le 10^6$) — the length of the strings $a$ and $b$.

The second and third lines contain strings $a$ and $b$ respectively.

Both strings $a$ and $b$ have length $n$ and contain only '0' and '1'.


-----Output-----

Output the minimum cost to make the string $a$ equal to $b$.


-----Examples-----
Input
3
100
001

Output
2

Input
4
0101
0011

Output
1



-----Note-----

In the first example, one of the optimal solutions is to flip index $1$ and index $3$, the string $a$ changes in the following way: "100" $\to$ "000" $\to$ "001". The cost is $1 + 1 = 2$.

The other optimal solution is to swap bits and indices $1$ and $3$, the string $a$ changes then "100" $\to$ "001", the cost is also $|1 - 3| = 2$.

In the second example, the optimal solution is to swap bits at indices $2$ and $3$, the string $a$ changes as "0101" $\to$ "0011". The cost is $|2 - 3| = 1$.
