#K46127. Longest Consecutive 'X' Sequence
Longest Consecutive 'X' Sequence
Longest Consecutive 'X' Sequence
Given a string consisting of characters 'X' and 'O', you are required to determine the length of the longest contiguous sequence of 'X'.
The problem tests your ability to perform simple string traversal and count sequences.
Note: Input will be read from stdin and the result should be printed to stdout.
Mathematically, if we define a sequence as a contiguous block of 'X's in the string S, the answer is:
\(\max_{1 \leq i \leq n} \{ \text{length of contiguous block of } 'X' \text{ starting at position } i \}\)
inputFormat
The input consists of a single line containing a non-empty string of characters 'X' and 'O' only.
For example:
OXXXOXOXX
outputFormat
The output is a single integer representing the length of the longest consecutive sequence of 'X'.
For example:
3## sample
OXXXOXOXX
