MACHINED SURFACESINPUT FILE: surf.in
OUTPUT FILE: surf.out
An imaging device furnishes digital images of two machined surfaces that eventually be assembled in contact with each other. The roughness of this final contact is to be estimated. A digital image is composed of the two characters, "X" and " " (space). There are always 25 columns to an image, but the total number of rows, N, is variable. Column 1 and 25 will always have an "X". Column 1 will always belong to the left surface, and column 25 will always belong to the right surface. The left surface can extend to the right as continuous Xs.
Digital-Image View of Surfaces
XXXX XXXXX X XXXXXXXX XXXXX XXXXXX XX X XXXXXXX XXXXXX . . . . . . . . . XXXXX XXXXX
In each row of the image there can be a zero or more space characters separating the left from the right surface. There will be no more than one region of blanks in any row. For each image given, your program has to determine the total "void" that will exist after the left and right surfaces have been brought into contact. The "void" is the total count of spaces that remain. The two surfaces are brought into contact by displacing them strictly horizontally towards each other until a rightmost "X" of the left surface of some row is immediately to the left of the leftmost "X" of the right surface in that row. The original image may show the two surfaces already in contact, in which case no displacement is needed.
INPUT
The input consists of a series of digital images.
Each data set for a digital image has the following format:
a positive integer N indicating the number of rows in the image;
N lines - each line is 25 characters: one or more Xs, then zero or more spaces, followed
by one or more Xs.
The end of data is indicated by the single digit 0.
OUTPUT
For each image output the value of "void", one per line
