Kevin has just recevied his disappointing results on the USA Identification of Cows Olympiad (USAICO) in the form of a binary string of length n. Each character of Kevin’s string represents Kevin’s score on one of the n questions of the olympiad—’1’ for a correctly identified cow and ‘0’ otherwise.

However, all is not lost. Kevin is a big proponent of alternative thinking and believes that his score, instead of being the sum of his points, should be the length of the longest alternating subsequence of his string. Here, we define an alternating subsequence of a string as a not-necessarily contiguous subsequence where no two consecutive elements are equal. For example, {0, 1, 0, 1}, {1, 0, 1}, and {1, 0, 1, 0} are alternating sequences, while {1, 0, 0} and {0, 1, 0, 1, 1} are not.

Kevin, being the sneaky little puffball that he is, is willing to hack into the USAICO databases to improve his score. In order to be subtle, he decides that he will flip exactly one substring—that is, take a contiguous non-empty substring of his score and change all ‘0’s in that substring to ‘1’s and vice versa. After such an operation, Kevin wants to know the length of the longest possible alternating subsequence that his string could have.

Input
The first line contains the number of questions on the olympiad n (1 ≤ n ≤ 100 000).

The following line contains a binary string of length n representing Kevin’s results on the USAICO.

Output
Output a single integer, the length of the longest possible alternating subsequence that Kevin can create in his string after flipping a single substring.

Examples
input
8
10000011

5

2
01
output
2
Note
In the first sample, Kevin can flip the bolded substring ‘10000011’ and turn his string into ‘10011011’, which has an alternating subsequence of length 5: ‘10011011’.

In the second sample, Kevin can flip the entire string and still have the same score.

題意:
給出一個01串,求最長子串(不必相鄰)的長度,要求每一位和相鄰的都不一樣.
可以對原有的01串的一個區間進行翻轉.

解題思路:
翻轉不會影響所求子串的長度(01相間的特性不會改變),但是翻轉對於有連續相同的來說會使得01相間的長度++(11->10).
記錄下連續相同的個數(但是不能大於二).

AC代碼:

#include<bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
const int maxn = 1e5+5;
char a[maxn];
int main()
{
    ios::sync_with_stdio(false);
    int n;
    cin>>n;
    for(int i = 0;i < n;i++)    cin>>a[i];
    int sum = 1;
    int cnt = 0;
    for(int i = 1;i < n;i++)    if(a[i] != a[i-1])  sum++;else  cnt++;
    cout<<sum+min(cnt,2);
    return 0;
}
