We have a string s consisting of lowercase English letters. Snuke is partitioning s into some number of non-empty substrings. Let the subtrings obtained be s_1, s_2, ..., s_N from left to right. (Here, s = s_1 + s_2 + ... + s_N holds.) Snuke wants to satisfy the following condition:
Find the minimum possible value of N when the partition satisfies the condition.
Input is given from Standard Input in the following format:
s
Print the minimum possible value of N when the partition satisfies the condition.
aabxyyzz
2
The solution is to partition s as aabxyyzz = aab + xyyzz.
Here, aab can be permuted to form a palindrome aba, and xyyzz can be permuted to form a palindrome zyxyz.
byebye
1
byebye can be permuted to form a palindrome byeeyb.
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
26
abcabcxabcx
3
The solution is to partition s as abcabcxabcx = a + b + cabcxabcx.
