Problem Description
Daniel has a string s, consisting of lowercase English letters and period signs (characters ‘.’). Let’s define the operation of replacement as the following sequence of steps: find a substring “..” (two consecutive periods) in string s, of all occurrences of the substring let’s choose the first one, and replace this substring with string “.”. In other words, during the replacement operation, the first two consecutive periods are replaced by one. If string s contains no two consecutive periods, then nothing happens.
Let’s define f(s) as the minimum number of operations of replacement to perform, so that the string does not have any two consecutive periods left.
You need to process m queries, the i-th results in that the character at position xi (1 ≤ xi ≤ n) of string s is assigned value ci. After each operation you have to calculate and output the value of f(s).
Help Daniel to process all queries.
Input
The first line contains two integers n and m (1 ≤ n, m ≤ 300 000) the length of the string and the number of queries.
The second line contains string s, consisting of n lowercase English letters and period signs.
The following m lines contain the descriptions of queries. The i-th line contains integer xi and ci (1 ≤ xi ≤ n, ci — a lowercas English letter or a period sign), describing the query of assigning symbol ci to position xi.
Output
Print m numbers, one per line, the i-th of these numbers must be equal to the value of f(s) after performing the i-th assignment.
Sample Input
10 3
.b..bz….
1 h
3 c
9 f
Sample Output

Note
Note to the first sample test (replaced periods are enclosed in square brackets).
The original string is “.b..bz….”.
after the first query f(hb..bz….) = 4 (“hb[..]bz….” → “hb.bz[..]..” → “hb.bz[..].” → “hb.bz[..]” → “hb.bz.”)
after the second query f(hbс.bz….) = 3 (“hbс.bz[..]..” → “hbс.bz[..].” → “hbс.bz[..]” → “hbс.bz.”)
after the third query f(hbс.bz..f.) = 1 (“hbс.bz[..]f.” → “hbс.bz.f.”)
Note to the second sample test.
The original string is “.cc.”.
after the first query: f(..c.) = 1 (“[..]c.” → “.c.”)
after the second query: f(….) = 3 (“[..]..” → “[..].” → “[..]” → “.”)
after the third query: f(.a..) = 1 (“.a[..]” → “.a.”)
after the fourth query: f(aa..) = 1 (“aa[..]” → “aa.”)
My Problem Report
一道简单的C题,不用想太复杂,模拟即可。当我们将字母修改成句点时,如果它前面是句点,答案++,如果它后面是句点,答案++。将句点修改为字母时操作相似。

本文介绍了一道关于字符串操作的问题,核心任务是在一系列查询中维护字符串的状态,确保字符串中不会出现连续两个句点的情况。通过模拟每次字符更改的影响来更新所需的替换次数。
