P9183 [USACO23OPEN] FEB B
Description
Bessie and Elsie are plotting to overthrow Farmer John at last! They plan it out
over $N$ text messages. Their conversation can be
represented by a string $S$ of length $N$ where $S_i$ is either `B` or `E`,
meaning the $i$ th message was sent by Bessie or Elsie, respectively.
However, Farmer John hears of the plan and attempts to intercept their
conversation. Thus, some letters of $S$ are `F`, meaning Farmer John obfuscated
the message and the sender is unknown.
The **excitement level** of a non-obfuscated conversation is the number of
times a cow double-sends - that is, the number of occurrences of substring `BB`
or `EE` in $S$. You want to find the excitement level of the original message,
but you don’t know which of Farmer John’s messages were actually Bessie’s
/ Elsie’s. Over all possibilities, output all possible excitement levels of
$S$.
