    Hey here is my code in python 3!! All test cases passes with just tiny code below:

    import sys N = int(input().strip()) C = input().strip() count=1 for i in range(len(C)-1):
    if len(set(C))==1: break else: if C[i]!=C[i+1]: count+=1 print(count)

    int main(){ int N; scanf("%d",&N); char a[N]; int count=0; scanf("%s",a);

    for(int i=0;i<strlen(a);i++)
{
    if(a[i]!=a[i+1])
    count++;
}
printf("%d",count);
return 0;

    }

    n=int(input())
s=input()
if len(set(s))==1:
    print(1)
else:
    c=0
    for i in range(len(s)-1):
        if s[i]!=s[i+1]:
            c+=1
        else:
            continue

    print(c+1)
