Input

the Input consists of two lines. The first line contains an integer n(1 n 100). The Second line contains n integers a1;a2;;;;an(1 ai 100).which describes a string as follows. The string starts with a1 quote characters, which are followed bt a positive number of non-quote characters, which are followed by a2 quote characters, which are followed by a positive number of non-quote characters, and so on, until the string ends with an quote characters.

Output

Display the largest number k such that a string described by the input is a k-quotation. If there is no such k, display no quotation instead.

I am confuse how to solve this?

What did your teacher tell you when you ask him/her?

told to write code for this program

Okay so go write the code then. Then learn how to ask questions and get a new teacher.

thanks for encouraging!

Well I can't imagine what else you expect from us. "Teach me programming in a forum posting" is not a question. We can't teach you programming over the internet in a forum posting. That is your teachers job not ours. If he isn't going to teach you, then get a new teacher.

example

input :5
then input = 2 1 1 1 3
output :2

Use Improve question to update your question.
So that everyone can pay attention to this information.

Instead of posting these vague comments you need to sit down and think about the problem. Write out some sample data on a piece of paper, and see what needs to be done to get the right answer. Once you understand the logic of the problem you should be able to turn it into code.

Although the name might suggest it, string theory has nothing to do with strings in C! It's about physics.

You must at first fetch and parse the input for your variables and than run your algorithm and output.

For simple data input you can use scanf.

For searching into strings the used function is strtok. Here is some small tutorial. It is a little weired "old school" function, so take time to understand the usage.

The next needed function is atoi. Here is some tutorial.

you will need code like this

C++

int value = 0;
value = atoi( szTokBuffer );

in your strtok loop.
