C - Slimes

Score : $300$ points

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?
