Flip or Swap
You are given a binary string S of size N. In one operation you can perform either of the following:
A valid string is any string where any two consecutive characters are not the same.
Find the minimum number of operations on S such that S becomes a valid string.
Constraints
1 ≤ N ≤ 10^5
1 ≤ len(S) ≤ 10^5
Input:
The first line contains an integer, N length of string.
The next line contains a string, S.
Test Case 1:
1
1
**Output:**
0
S="1", here already no two consecutive characters are same hence the answer is 0.Test Case: 2
5
01101
**Output:**
1
S="01101"
If we swap the first and second character of the string we get S="10101" and we can see that here no two consecutive characters are the same.
Hence the answer is 1.Test Case 3
5
00000
**Output:**
2
S="00000"
We can flip the 2nd and the 4th character of the string S.
S="01010"
