#C2655. Count Differences in DNA Sequences
Count Differences in DNA Sequences
Count Differences in DNA Sequences
In this problem, you are given two DNA sequences A and B, each of length (N). Your task is to determine the number of positions at which the two sequences differ. Formally, you need to compute the number of indices (i) (where (1 \leq i \leq N)) such that (A_i \neq B_i).
For example, if (A = \texttt{ACGTT}) and (B = \texttt{ACGGT}), there is exactly 1 position where the characters differ.
inputFormat
The input is read from standard input (stdin) and consists of three lines:
1. The first line contains a single integer (N), the length of the DNA sequences.
2. The second line contains the DNA sequence (A) (a string of length (N)).
3. The third line contains the DNA sequence (B) (a string of length (N)).
outputFormat
Output to standard output (stdout) a single integer representing the number of positions at which the sequences (A) and (B) differ.## sample
