Problem Statement

You are given two strings $S$ and $T$. Determine whether it is possible to make $S$ equal $T$ by performing the following operation some number of times (possibly zero).

Between two consecutive equal characters in $S$, insert a character equal to these characters. That is, take the following three steps.

1. Let $N$ be the current length of $S$, and $S = S_1S_2\ldots S_N$.
2. Choose an integer $i$ between $1$ and $N-1$ (inclusive) such that $S_i = S_{i+1}$. (If there is no such $i$, do nothing and terminate the operation now, skipping step 3.)
3. Insert a single copy of the character $S_i(= S_{i+1})$ between the $i$-th and $(i+1)$-th characters of $S$. Now, $S$ is a string of length $N+1$: $S_1S_2\ldots S_i S_i S_{i+1} \ldots S_N$.

Constraints

• Each of $S$ and $T$ is a string of length between $2$ and $2 \times 10^5$ (inclusive) consisting of lowercase English letters.

Input

Input is given from Standard Input in the following format:

$S$
$T$
TEXT

Output

If it is possible to make $S$ equal $T$, print Yes; otherwise, print No. Note that the judge is case-sensitive.

Sample Input 1

abbaac
abbbbaaac
TEXT

Sample Output 1

Yes
TEXT

You can make $S =$ abbaac equal $T =$ abbbbaaac by the following three operations.

• First, insert b between the $2$-nd and $3$-rd characters of $S$. Now, $S =$ abbbaac.
• Next, insert b again between the $2$-nd and $3$-rd characters of $S$. Now, $S =$ abbbbaac.
• Lastly, insert a between the $6$-th and $7$-th characters of $S$. Now, $S =$ abbbbaaac.

Thus, Yes should be printed.

Sample Input 2

xyzz
xyyzz
TEXT

Sample Output 2

No
TEXT

No sequence of operations makes $S =$ xyzz equal $T =$ xyyzz. Thus, No should be printed.

题目大意

你可以在字符串$S$的连续两个相同的字母变成连续且相同的三个字母

通俗地讲，就是$..aa.$能变成$..aaa.$

问你$S$串能否变成$T$

解题思路

用双指针分别记录$S$和$T$处理到了那个字母。（分别记为$locS$和$locT$）

如果$S$和$T$对应的字母相同，则两个指针分别向后移动一位

if (S[locS] == T[locT])
    locS++, locT++;
CPP

否则（$S$和$T$对应的元素不同），要想使得$S$变成$T$就需要在$S$中插入一个字母$T[locT]$

要想在$S$的$locS$处插入一个字母$T[locT]$，就需要$S[loc-1]、S[loc-2]$都为$T[locT]$。（因为已知$S[locS]\ne T[locT]$，所以新插入的字母不可能通过$S[locS]、S[locS+1]$拓展出来）

• 如果$S[loc-1]、S[loc-2]$都为$T[locT]$，就$locT++$（$T$的$locT$已由$S[loc-1]、S[loc-2]$拓展出来）
• 否则，直接输出No并结束即可。
