2027. Minimum Moves to Convert String

You are given a string s consisting of n characters which are either 'X' or 'O'.

A move is defined as selecting three consecutive characters of s and converting them to 'O'. Note that if a move is applied to the character 'O', it will stay the same.

Return the minimum number of moves required so that all the characters ofsare converted to'O'.

Example 1:

Input: s = "XXX" Output: 1 Explanation: XXX -> OOO We select all the 3 characters and convert them in one move. 

Example 2:

Input: s = "XXOX" Output: 2 Explanation: XXOX -> OOOX -> OOOO We select the first 3 characters in the first move, and convert them to 'O'. Then we select the last 3 characters and convert them so that the final string contains all 'O's. 

Example 3:

Input: s = "OOOO" Output: 0 Explanation: There are no 'X's in s to convert. 

Constraints:

  • 3 <= s.length <= 1000
  • s[i] is either 'X' or 'O'.
